Auricula Primula 'royal velvet'

Lovely rich colour

Yes thanks Sheila...and contrasting beautifully with the silvery foliage. :)

Its lovely. Karen I have been to Pops Plants near Salisbury today, and they hold the National Collection of Primula Auricula. Its just a family concern and we had to go through the house to get to a massive greenhouse with over 1200 plants in. Shame they weren't all in flower, but what a lovely sight. Of course I had to buy some, but they have an open day at the end of the month, so shall be going again! You can see some of them on their website.

So pretty.....

What a treat Cinders! Thanks DD!
