Primula 2015
« on: January 05, 2015, 02:40:39 PM »
My own fault I suppose, caused by neglect over the past few weeks due to a combination of a poor run of weather, visitors taking a lot of time, and the usual pre and post hassle of Christmas and New Year and a couple of weeks when I didn't feel up to it, but had to chuck out around a dozen Primula hybrids and marginata forms today suffering from advanced botrytus. Must get a fan in operation fairly quickly.

First ones to flower seemed to have avoided it. Primula allionii 'Edmund Evans' one of David Philbey's raisings  and Primula 'Lindum Moonlight'

Edmund Evans is a good looking plant - mine are no where near flowering - I need to rescue them from under the benches

Praecox is normally the first one in flower for me

'Lindum Moonlight' is usually my first one. Last year I posted it on 2 January 2014 but have shown it before Christmas previously.

I have 3 plants of Lindum Moon from different sources and none of them are showing anything yet

Hey guys. I collected some P. vulgaris seeds in 2014 and this is what has appeared. Are these Primula Vulgaris Seedlings?

very nice David as always. The first of my allioniis Elizabeth Burrow has been out for a few weeks. I usually get a bad flare from it in pictures, this one of one of the cuttings looks a bit better.

hi, it's one of the Sarcocapnos - I've had it seeding around for decades - originally it was from an Archibald collection.

very pretty David. Apart from an escaped P. marginate flower and allionii Elizabeth Burrow nothing out here yet - but soon there will be some.
