Alpine auriculas, Primula auricula, make distinctive cabbage-like clumps of foliage which, in spring, are topped by upright stems with domed heads of circular flowers in bold colours. The plants look best in a rock garden grown in groups in the shade of rocks or shrubby rock plants', but they also thrive in humus-rich, well-drained woodland borders in light dappled shade. They're also ideal for growing in containers.
