Primula sinopurpurea
The most beautiful Primula I’ve ever
grown! Discovered in 1883 in China, this Spring-blooming Primrose bears
the prettiest hued, rich, lavender-blue star flowers. The blooms are
slightly drooping, and borne in one or two tiers atop 12” stems AND THEY
ARE FRAGRANT! Rosette forming, the long narrow leaves are coated below
with yellow farina. Deciduous in late Summer and Fall, they return in
Winter and bloom in Spring. They love rich, loamy, well drained soil
that is kept moist and bright shade. I fertilize mine twice a year and
keep some in pots so I can enjoy their beauty and sweet scent close up. Bright shade USDA zones 5-10 |
