Potting up spring baskets with primroses

Using a wheelbarrow to mix your compost makes it easy to fill your baskets

 

The finished product.  Dead head the flowers to keep blooms coming until well into the summer

 

 

I took the opportunity of a lovely sunny spring morning to pot up some primroses in hanging baskets to brighten up the place.  Little pots of 4 are reasonably cheap in Aldi at the moment and just a couple of sprigs of variegated ivy robbed off trees in the woods (they will root themselves and you will always have them) is an economical way to add interest.

Of course the ubiquitous robin helped me!
