Talking of old Prim. marginata forms and hybrids, has anyone seen P. marginata (hybrid?) 'Hyacintha' for sale recently? I used to grow it for many years, and my parents for many years before that, but it vanished in a scorching summer when I was too busy to keep my troughs watered enough and I haven't seen it in any catalogues since. It'd be a shame if it's vanished forever. It was (is?) a beauty.
Yes that's the one, Luit. Apparently it was micro-propagated at some point in the past but I don't think I ever saw it offered for sale here. Mine came from my parents who had been growing it for many years.
Hi Luc. Yes, that's marginata 'Hyacinthia'. Thank you very much; if I can't find a source for the plant in the UK then I'll send you a personal message to see if you can send me a rosette for me to root.
