A few more Primulas from the greenhouse today.The first couple are of Primula auricula. Last year Hans Hoeller in Austria sent me a batch of cuttings from the wild Primulas he grows, (thank you Hans), and these are the first two to flower. I always think that the colour of Primula auricula takes a lot of beating in the plant world.
Next is a primula allionii hybrid 'Wharfedale Crusader'Primula marginata 'White Linda Pope' nowadays seems to be called 'White Lady'. This one I originally bought as the proper 'Linda Pope'!This one is the real Primula marginata 'Linda Pope' which some would say is a hybrid.To finish Primula allionii x 'Aire Mist'. I'm fairly certain there is a botanical name for this particular plant but I can't find it.As a grower of lots of Primula cultivars it is becoming more and more difficult to keep track of whether plants are, for example, marginata selections or marginata hybrids and it is just the same in the case of Primula allionii. Room for a new book here someone.
