Although some respond Foreword to the 60th Edition By Jay Lunn well to a rich diet, most will maintain their character and get along just as well with limited fertilization. You would be amazed at how well some primroses will perform The common name, primrose, is used in conjunction with several genera. This while growing in pure sand and just a little feeding! None like the full mid-summer contributes to some confusion over the name. For example, some people believe sun of low elevation locations at latitudes that are closer to the equator than either that primroses are the fairly large plants commonly growing in the arid western pole. Even primroses grown farther from the equator will appreciate a slope facing United States with white or yellow flowers that close by mid-day. These are the away from the prevailing sun or at least partial shade, particularly in the afternoon evening primroses in the genus Oenothera, not the true primrose. Primroses are in hours. the genus Primula and are unrelated to the former. Carolus Linnaeus, a Swedish Primroses are subject to some predation by a few despicable critters. Since they botanist now known as the "Father of Botany", published the first description of a are producing tender morsels early in the season, slugs find them very inviting. Primula, P. elatior (which may have also included what is now know as P. vulgaris) Root weevil larva can be a problem in early summer, especially if the adult weevils in 1735. His choice of name for the genus is from the Latin prima, which means are not controlled when attracted to other plants in the garden. "first". It is an appropriate name for the genus with well over 400 species now In this expanded 60th Edition of Primroses, twelve species or categories of recognized, many of which are the earliest blooming plants in their native habitat. primroses, considered easy to grow by many gardeners in a variety of geographical You may ask "why do I need primroses in my garden?" Primroses are generally locations, are examined in detail. Most of these "selected primroses" are very cold early blooming plants that provide color to the garden when little else has begun to hardy. They can be grown in Alaska, Scandinavian countries, interior provinces of flower. In Pacific Northwest gardens, P.juliae hybrids start blooming in mid-winter Canada and upper Midwest of the U.S., and do so probably better than in the Pacific and continue through early spring and begin their show in colder regions as soon as Northwest, Atlantic coast, England or France. If you live anywhere in California, the snow melts. Other primroses are slower to begin their floral display, but they except right along the Pacific coast, you may find growing some of them a test of your gardening skills. However, Californians are fortunate to be able to grow less will be flowering by late spring or early summer.

  • P27-30 Auriculas Layout 1
    New series double auriculas Graeme P. Butler Occasionally, by chance or cultivation, a plant appears that changes the way we look at a species or hybrid. Sometimes such newcomers increase growers’ Graeme Butler © profits, but my desire to eliminate faults and improve an existing plant group was the driving force behind a hobby that started some 25 years ago and only later became my livelihood. If plant breeders could restore the scent to Dianthus, and increase disease resistance in roses, then why shouldn’t I rise to the challenge of improving my favourite plant? For many years I had been collecting Fig. 1 Primula auricula ‘Black Jack’ and hybridising double auriculas, but I wasn’t entirely happy with their undesirable trait of weak flower stalks, a fault common to many plants which have been bred for extra petals and/or flower size. Then in1994 I noticed a chance seedling which I felt sure would mark the way forward. My plant not only surprised me by having a liberal dusting of farina, which is unusual for a double, but also short, thick, inch-tall flower stalks. It was, in fact, a mutation. The subsequently named ‘Black Jack’ (fig. 1) had dark, reddish-claret flowers which sat well Graeme Butler with the silvery farina. Twelve years on, © curiously, it remains the only auricula to hold Plant Breeders’ Rights. The National Auricula and Primula Society states that all display exhibits should have their flower stems supported by a short cane, discreetly tied. This isn’t practical in the commercial trade, of course! In my capacity as a professional nurseryman, I saw some hope for improvement.

A hypothesis assumed that the type of solvent used for plant extraction and the individual morphological parts of Primula veris L. used for the preparation of herbal extracts will have key impacts on the efficiency of the extraction of bioactive compounds, and thus, the health- promoting quality of plant concentrates produced. Most analysis of such polyphenolic compound contents in extracts from Primula veris L. has been performed by using chromatography methods such as ultra-performance reverse-phase liquid chromatography (UPLC−PDA−MS/MS). Experiments ◦ demonstrated that the most effective extraction agent for fresh study material was water at 100 C, whereas for dried material it was 70% ethanol. The richest sources of polyphenolic compounds Citation: Tarapatskyy, M.; were found in cowslip primrose flowers and leaves.
