Hey Pix - I found a list for you - quite a few varieties here:

My own experience is they flower best when they receive 3 or more hours of morning sun.
Otherwise, you get more foliage & while that's nice, I prefer to grow them for the flowers.
My Wada's Primrose has not flowered in the shade (2 hours a.m. & a couple hours p.m. sun); moving that one soon to full sun with a support.

This one is in the shade, always heading up the garden fence reaching for the Wisteria.
