Auriculas -- whether in blood red, sunshine yellow, royal purple, or black and white -- have driven gardeners to extremes of obsession, as they attempt to breed and show the perfect plant. No wonder: these enthralling primrose Alpines come in a wonderful range of forms, as well as colors. An award-winning expert generously shares her knowledge, gathered in over 15 years of cultivating auriculas in her own nursery. Along with hundreds of photos to savor, you'll find out what to look for when buying, the different methods of growing (in the garden, greenhouse, cold frame, cool conservatory, or porch); propagation; and how to handle pests and diseases. Most impressive and helpful of all: an extensive directory with over 500 commercially available varieties.

Having bought my first few auriculas I found myself with very little idea just what I should be doing with them and this book has answered every question I've had in my first year of keeping them. The sections with advice and guidance have been useful and reassuring, as well as being very clear and easy to understand. It's the second section full of pictures and descriptions that has been my downfall as they all look so good I want one of everything now and the list of specialist nurseries should help me do that too...
