Primula juliae

15th April 2013
A tiny growing species from the Eastern Caucasus introduced to cultivation at the start of the 20th century.
It was rapidly hybridised with Primula vulgaris and other species to produce a range of
bright, vigorous hybrids. 'Wanda' has been the most inescapable but there are hundreds of them.
I got a plant of the species from Joe Sharman and was delighted to see the real thing
which is now endangered in the wild.
