Primula 2016

[David Nicholson]

A few more:-

The first is my own seedling from open pollinated seed and named for Maureen's late sister-in-law who sadly died far too young. Primula 'Kathryn Alice'.
P. 'Oberau'
Primula allionii 'Eureka'
P. 'Tony' originally bred by Margaret Earle under her breeding number HME473-86

[David Nicholson]

Lindum Lavender Mist is rather nice

Yup, pretty little thing.

[Maggi Young]

Never ceases to amaze me how big some of these allionii flowers are!

[Philip Walker]

P. 'Stradbrook Dainty'
P. 'Broadwell Milkmaid'
P. 'Wharfedale 'Ling'-I think

[David Nicholson]

'Wharfedale Ling' looks spot on Philip. Do you find 'Broadwell Milkmaid' to be 'miffy'?

[Philip Walker]

Define miffy.Do you mean unclean flowers or poor foliage.When I took this to our group meeting,our man that talks us through the plants,(we have a mini show each month),said 'Milkmaid' is very prone to virus.My plant got a good review,although it flowered a lot better last year.

Philip, I think I mean 'weak growing'. Looks good for a year and then declines gradually?

Some of mine today:
Primula 'Janet Aldritch'   a David Philbey hybrid
P. 'Helen Evans' another David Philbey hybrid
P. 'Moonbeam' originally raised by Margaret Earle under her breeding number HME 469-87

[David Nicholson]

A couple more:-

Primula x miniera (a marginata x latifolia cross) this one from Timpany Nursery.
P. 'Lois Parker' this came to me with the breeding number BB 99-6. I assume this is Brian Burrow, can anyone confirm please? A real beauty to my eye.

Helen Evans - nice pin

Lois Parker  - wow - great colour

[Philip Walker]

David-mine's still growing well,but it is very young.
You have a great collection.

[Matt T]

Primula x miniera is nice. I like the ruffled effect to the flowers. Another good reason to visit Timpany when I go to Ireland in a few weeks.

Thank heavens for the alpine houses on a horrible wet, sleety day! 2 degrees outside

Primula 'Broadwell Oliver'
P. 'Beatrice Wooster'
P. 'Ryal '
P. marginata 'Tremalzo' seems to e a mis-named  Primula 'Casterino'

[suesimpson33]

Primula 'Eureka'
P. 'Broadwell Rosie'
P. 'Oberau'
P. marginata 'Drake's Form'

[Carolyn]

All lovely, Sue, but I particularly like 'Beamish' with its dark flowers contrasting the silver foliage.
