Perhaps my dream was motivated by some deep part of my brain yearning for a return to flower shows. Do this using a sharp knife and a steady hand. If you do want to bulk up on any particularly good variety, the best way to propagate is vegetatively, namely by removing the little plantlets which will emerge around the outside of an established auricula. In other words, seedlings will produce flowers of various new shades and colour combinations. These will grow quite easily from seed but seedlings wonвЂ™t always come true to type. Border types will, in theory, do well planted out in the garden but I have found, from experience unless they are growing in a very well-drained rockery or scree bed that they will not last many years.ДЄnyone who has developed a fascination with a plant genus - I hesitate to use the word addiction but really thatвЂ™s what it can become, and far better than many other addictions -will understand how all-encompassing it can become. Try one or two in a pot on the kitchen windowsill or unheated glasshouse if you have one but do move them out for the summer months as they do like good amounts of ventilation and fresh air. Remember that they are native to mountainous regions and thus they like to grow in very free-draining soils - hence many are grown in pots where the growing medium and drainage can be controlled. Alpine Auriculas are also broken into groups: Light Centred, Gold Centred, Laced and Fancy and then there are Doubles and Border.ДЄll auriculas will tolerate the frost and low temperatures that we experience in Ireland - however what they do struggle with is the amount of rain that we get here.Д®xcessive rain during the winter can simply rot the root system and too much rain during the spring will mark the foliage and leaves along with weakening the overall vigour of the plant. There are Show Auriculas, further categorised as: Edged, Self, Striped and Fancy. Originally established by William Lockyer and Simon Lockyer in the late 1980вЂ™s. auricula is broken down into about 10 groups or categories. W&S Lockyer have achieved multiple RHS CHELSEA GOLD medals, with their famed traditional Auricula Theatres. It does not store any personal data.There are now auricula societies all over the world dedicated to sharing knowledge, new developments and seeds of these treasures and as the rest of the world has had to change over the last number of years so too, many of these groups now meet via Zoom, to discuss and show off the finer points of prized specimens.ДЄ species of primula, P.
