Graeme, yes lacewing has a slight but definate pink edge to the flower.

I'd say Rosemary is a fairly large flower but not like one of the really big ones - but the plant itself is small - I think this cutting is only a few rosettes.

There is a danger when they flower like that - a few years back the Malcolm was bigger and a perfect dome of flowers and as a result it acted like a plastic bag over the leaves and it rotted.

Wanted : Chevithorne Pink and Tyrian Purple Double Primroses
« Reply #56 on: March 24, 2015, 07:42:03 PM »
It has been noted previously in the forum that Chevithorne Pink and Tyrian Purple Double Primroses are being grown.
A message has been received asking if anyone knows of a source to buy these plants.
Can anyone help?

I seem to remember that Roma has shown pictures of Chevithorne Pink before, maybe she knows of a supplier? I've never seen either of them on sale.
