Primula 'Stradbrook Charm'.

......... which looks markedly like the Stradbrook Variegated I posted the other day. I was never sure about the provenance of my plant that I bought a couple of years ago, indeed I've never seen it offered.

A few from me

P.allionii Marjorie Wooster. I always thought this one was a bit oversized and didn't like the reflexed petals but actually it's still a pretty plant.

P. allionii Anna Griffith. One of my favourites.

P. allionii 81-1-93 - presumably one of Brian Burrow's seedlings - it may even have a proper name now.

Hello Brian - that's  a good definitive answer.    You've bred some crackers!

David I have never bred a Primula Stradbrook Varigated

Hello Brian, you're very well known to me by name. Many thanks, I bought the plant from the Members Plant Stall at the South West AGS Show a couple of years ago. I don't have the label now but I can remember the "Stradbrook" bit was very clear but the "variegated" bit looked as though it had been scribbled on at a different time. I wonder if my picture is clear enough for you to give me a view as to what my plant might be please?

David the picture is fine there has been seven grown and named  from the original cross  made around 1980 I can rule out five of them from your picture leaving two I need to check on in the morning they are stradbrook Jeanne. and Stradbrook Charm. the latter being the most likely.
I am still trying to find my way around this site ,no idea how to post pictures as yet
regards Brian
