Would 'Velvet moon' be the primula you're looking for? The cowhichan primulas originated on Vancouver Island and they have the foliage you've described. I have 'Velvet Moon' which was bred and selected by Dr. John Kerridge it's a large deep velvety red with a tiny yellow center, the foliage has a maroon edge on it. I don't know who sells cowichan primula seed in the states, Thompson and Morgan used to and I know you can buy seed in England. If you can't find 'Velvet Moon' I'm sure you can come pretty close with seed in the red shades. Annette Here is a link that might be useful: Velvet Moon

Have a lot of routine primulas in the garden and go out of my way yearly to add more. Generally, I've not found drumstick primulas to last for more than a few years. The one very obvious and very noticeable primula seeder, which we have, is a Japanese primula; only have 'Miller's Crimson'.
