Re: [SHADEGARDENS] Primula/Lobelia/Pulmonaria


Hi Jean.

I do not often buy seeds. Have not been impressed by the choice in seed
catalogs, European or Americam. If you are really interested, I think the
thing is to join some Primrose society.

Normally I get seeds from the seed exchanges in the clubs I belong to, or by
exchange elsewhere. Seeds from sources like that have grown very well for me.

The summer of 1997 was too dry for my primulas so they didn't set many
seeds. But I still have some very few left of the following if you are
interested:

     Primula alpicola
     Primula cockburniana
     Primula macrophylla
     Primula x pubescens
     Primula rosea
     Primula sino-purpurea
     Primula waltonii
