SUMMARY:
Notes on Primula populations with yellow, blue-purple, and white forms; whites show some variation, and all remain short and small-leaved as in specimens 3432–3436. Specimens 3449 and 3370 (alpicola luna) are compared, with 3449 resembling P. florindae or P. microdonta, P. sikkimensis present, and distributions between about 12,000–14,000 ft, with 3449 taking over at lower elevations than 3370.

tinged, a good many of the blue colours, and some nondescript
colours in between. But all these primulas seem to grow true
where they are really in mass, the yellow and blue purple showing
no variations, while the white shows some. All remain short
small leaved, just as were the specimens 3432-3-4-5-6.

alpicola luna
3449 (Same as 3353). This has now grown to a considerable height,
and appears to be very like P. florindae or P. microdonta. Alt. varies
from 12,000 to 13,000'. P. sikkimensis grows here too.

alpicola luna

3370. Altitude from 12,500' - 14,000', growing more on open hillside
      than 3449. No. 3449 more or less takes over at the low elevation
      of 3370.

SUMMARY:
The page lists numerous Primula taxa with specimen numbers and brief notes on abundance and flowering, many recorded as common at Kantanang on 10/6. It mentions elevation comparison within the same valley, white forms of P. glabra, a hybrid (P. sikkimensis × hopeana), and comments on varieties such as caveana var. alba and macrophylla var. macrocarpa.

SUMMARY:
Notes on Petiolarid primulas, with early flowering in April by P. winteri, P. gracilipes, P. bracteosa, P. filipes, and P. normaniana. The author summarizes collection efforts: 107 gatherings across 44 taxa in 1937 and 95 gatherings in 1949, with monthly breakdowns showing peaks in June and July. A comparative table contrasts monthly totals for 1937 and 1949.

First are Petiolarids - Denticulate & the like all atrodentata.
P. winteri & gracilipes often coming through the snow.
There is not very much in them, but they cause a show in themselves, especially gracilipes. These flower in April, & with them P. bracteosa & P. filipes, normaniana & others. After them there is a comparative rush. In 1937, I took 107 gatherings of primulas representing 44 species and varieties. Of these 2 were taken in April, 16 gatherings were made in May, 37 in June, 49 in July. In 1949 I have taken 95 gatherings as follows: April 9, May 30, June 31, July 19, August 6.
