Primula leaves

Please tell me why the Primula leaves are trying to stand up?
Too much light?  Not enough light?

Thank you,

Corinne, how old is the plant? Is it a mature plant that has never done this before?
If not I would suggest that what the picture is showing is healthy, fresh new leaves that will 'lie down' as they mature. Unless you think that there is more information that we should have I don't think that anything is wrong.

I lost the marker for the darling.  It germinated late in the season, 2006,
and was too small to plant out.  So, I kept it in the house as a pet.

Any advice is appreciated.  Thank you.

Corinne, maybe it looks a little well nourished but apart from that looks a healthy little plant. I wouldn't worry too much unless it produces more leaf and no flower.
