A lovely hybrid between Primula vialii and P. flacida occurring in a bed of Vaillii. Not sure if there is a name for this particular hybrid, I know it is a fairly common occurrence. Picture alongside one of its parents.

Here are two pictures of Primula rusbyi. I got the seeds as P. ellisae, but I haven't found any references to this species on the internet, so I think it is P. rusbyi instead, but maybe it's not...one can never be totally sure with names no matter where the seeds come from.
It grows in a crack in pretty dry soil, and has nice pink flowers:

And here is a photo from the Aberdeen Show of a potful from the  Drs  Bainbridge.....it seems luminaries of the RHS Rock Garden Plant Committee can have a different take on the spelling too....

I hate to be the bearer of bad (taxonomic) tidings ...    ;)
but it seems P ellisiae (note spelling!) has been absorbed into P rusbyi.  It's been there before, as a subspecies and a synonym, but it's now there again
