ian mcdonald:
I was sent a photo. of a primula found on a local site. It looks like P .farinosa or P. frondosa. The leaves are fairly wide and do not have farina. It should not be in our area as it is not a limestone area. It may be a garden throw-out. Any ideas?

Philippe:
Not easy to appreciate details on the screen, but could it have been a weak or first time flowering Primula auriculata?

olegKon:
I have long been looking for the correct name for a primula I have. So your identification seems to have helped. Can it be P. Auriculata?

Philippe:
In my opinion this isn't Primula auriculata on your picture.
I may say some silly things now, but it rather looks like an opening cultivar of Primula denticulata ( or a hybrid of something with P.denticulata). If the plant forms nice rounded heads of flowers later, then it probably is P.denticulata.

David Nicholson:
Primula rosea?
