Spring in our garden - primroses

The time of blooming primroses has passed by - most of them bloom in the end of April and the whole month of May, and some finish in the beginning of June. In my garden, there are 7 types of primroses:
1. Drumstick primroses "Alba" and "Rubin" (kerapriimula, Primula denticulata)
2. Primula vulcaris (varretu priimula)
3. Primula cortusoides "Primadiente" (kortuuspriimula
4. Bird's eye primrose (pääsusilm, Primula farinosa)
5. Primula juliae "Sneeuwwitje" (juulia priimula)
6. Primula rosea (roosa priimula)
7. Japanese primrose (jaapani priimula, Primula japonica)
I can add photos only for the first 5, since the Primula rosea didn't bloom this year and the Japanese primrose I purchased just this Spring and the blossoms were too little to get a good picture.
The rest are here:
