The best of the 'Aire' series. Large pure white flowers with very wavy edges to the petals. Neat rosettes of slightly notched leaves.

Neat deep green wavy edged foliage, complimented, on one inch stems, by the wavy edged , mauvey pink flowers with a good pale yellow thrum eye.

Several delicate thrum eyed flowers are produced on each short stem, they are a deep rose pink with a hint of purple fading slightly towards the neat white throat, each petal edged with a very fine white line make this distinct.

 Rosettes of small leaves lie almost flat, each is heavily toothed for almost its whole margin, particularly jagged at the tip. Relatively large flower with overlapping deeply notched petals of a pure deep plummy pink with a small pure white eye. Thrum.

RICHARDS'

Named for his wife this is  the best of several hybrids produced by David Richards. Shiny green toothed leaves and several large lilac-blue flowers on 2 in. stems. Best in class of 34 entries at National Primula Show exhibited by David Philbey             

This superb cross between P allionii and P x Linda Pope is not very generous with its propagating material so is not often offered. Crinkly leaved congested rosettes of deep green and on each short stem up to 20 open cup shaped flowers of lilac pink, deep mauve and cream. Remove the flower stem as soon as the flowers fade, it will kill itself with its efforts to produce seed which is useless anyway. 3 in. 

NEW

Margaret Earle’s Primula allionii ‘Malcolm’ is accepted as one of the finest. The form and flowers on this hybrid are just the same. Neat low cushion of small rosettes covered in spring with white flowers with overlapping notched petals each suffused from the edge with the most delicate lilac pink that spills half way into the petal.

SUNSHINE'

One of the Wharfedale types that is hardly ever offered, but we have a reasonable crop this year. Slightly larger than others from this stable but with the most exquisite flowers of cream with a subtle hint of pink. 

Another lovely Primula once again spoiled by micro-propagation. Thanks to a customer we acquired the original form. It is superb! Tight rosettes of olive green slightly crinkled edged leaves that are finely dusted with golden farina, many pin eyed short tubed almost stemless large flowers that are cream centred. Each petal  grades from white through pale lilac to deep reddish purple at its wavy edge.
