That worked :D

Here are a couple more:
No 1: Primula crassifolia grown from Holubec-seeds.
No 2: Primula euprepes SDR 6023. This plant was bought as Primula sp, and it was a big surprise to see the buds open and the black flower emerging!
No 3: Same plant a week later. What a beauty!

WOW! I love the P. euprepes! I've never seen it before--and if you can coax seed from it, I'd love to be on the list...

Primula minima looks wonderful, I once spent £2 on a pack of seed from one of these collecting trips but it never germinated.  Ah me.
