A chicken Primula auricula , produce on the upper slopes of the Eiger , in a damp snow foot race - off with Ranunculus glacialis . This trip brought us many meadow of this early blooming primula , and we were very prosperous , both because of it being late this season , and because we simply found the populations .
A weak pink form of Primula hirsuta , or it may be a natural crossing of P. hirsuta and P. daoensis . Photographed this in the mellow crocus meadows of First , Bearnese Oberland ..
A primula farinosa caught in an early summer snow in the the Alps .

Variations in a population of Primula farinosa on the slopes of the Eiger , near 9,000 ft , uprise with many P. auricular appendage and Ranunculus glacialis . Sorry for the maverick case , but I am posting this post live from my iPad .
An impressive yellow P. auricula , the parent of the many fancy auricular appendix primroses we sometimes see in England . In the back , Dryas octopetala and a melting glacier . Nearing the top of the Eiger .
A tiny farinose primula growing in a universe near the North Face of the Eiger .
