I presume you mean Primula Denticula by pop pom primula.

I suppose it's just conceivable they could be double primroses, which have become popular over the last few years.
Just after flowering would be the time to divide them. Dig them up - you;'ll see that they are indeed a clump of separate plants - and gently pull, shake, and tease them apart. Replant, and keep them well watered for the rest of the summer until they're well settled.
