These Barnhaven seedlings were planted out too late last autumn to make much growth, but should be bigger next year.
However the colours are so rich.

Shouldn't that be Primula sinensis?  (or am I way behind as usual)?  :D

Cliff P. simensis is an outlier species from Ethiopia, named after the Simien mountains.  Formerly it was considered a subspecies of P. verticillata which occurs on the Arabian peninsula including Yemen.

Nice Primula collection there Ashley with some I haven't seen before. I think I would really struggle with some of them.

Many thanks, Ashley.  Google doesn't recognise it, but that shouldn't really surprise me. You learn something new every day.

They enjoy the cool wet summers that make growing Mediterranean bulbs here such an exercise in perversity David ;D

I split up and moved some gold laced polyanthus and Garnet Cowichans two years ago and they are looking good this year (or were till today when I noticed a rabbit has been eating the flowers)
Also in the bed are some Bellarina primroses.  The cream and yellow ones are particularly good
