My primroses are blooming and they are the first bit of color in my garden so far this year. Did you know that primroses have long been considered fairy flowers in Ireland and Wales, where they are believed to grant fairies the power of invisibility? In some circles it is said that eating primroses is supposed to enable you to see the fairies. Hanging a spray of primroses on your door is an invitation for the fae to enter your home and to draw fairy blessings; but scattering primroses outside your door is said to keep fairies away by making a barrier that they cannot cross.
If you touch a fairy rock with a primrose posy that contains the right number of blossoms (five) it is said to open the way to Fairyland and fairy gifts. Be cautious though, for using a bouquet with the wrong number of flowers is said to bring certain doom. Plant primroses in your garden to attract fairies and be sure to take good care of them, for allowing them to languish or die is said to earn you the wrath of fairies.
