  1. Evening primroses! A couple of months from now they may very well be spreading along the length of the gutter. They’re very hard to get rid of once they’re established somewhere. You can pull up a bucket load of roots, think you’ve got it all, then one day you’ll see a flower, then a few more, and so it goes on. We have the white variety in the front corner of the yard. They look so welcoming every time I walk up the driveway.
