IS this Primrose?

[ZEROPILOT]

I recently asked if Primrose was edible because one of my tortoises was caught eating these flowers...Is it even Primrose? I have a photo now.

It kind of looks like vinca. Let's ask @Iochroma

Thanks Yvonne G. She ate quite a few.

That's not a primrose. Not positive from this picture, but it looks like a Mimulus to me. They're safe. Can you please post more pics with a better close-up of the flower, a profile of the flower, and one of the foliage at the stem?

Yes. Later today. Thank you. The tort seems fine. I want to catalog everything that is edible that I have growing wild. Right now my lawn is very low, but maybe I can pull back the grass and show stems and leaves.

There are no leaves to speak of. Flower, stem and root.
