Primula 'Lois Lutz'
Primula 'x juliana 'Jay-Jay'
Price: $9.00 In Stock

Quart Pot
One of the most intensely colored Juliana type Primroses out there. This puts on a no-holds barred display of shrieking magenta flowers that is a celebration of pigment with no apologies.  The rich color sets it apart from all others. Tolerates full sun if given enough water but looks better given some relief from afternoon sun. Very tough and a good clumper. Our plant came from Rice Creek Garden in Minneapolis years ago so that gives some clue as to hardiness.  It also came under the name of 'Lois Lutz' which we have sold it as for a number of years including this year on our online store here.  Thanks to the American Primrose Society show people down in Portland for pointing out the error of our ways.
Primula allionii 'Wharfedale Ling"
Primula allionii 'Wharfedale Ling'
Price: $8.00 In Stock

Small Band Pot
A treasure for the rock garden or trough, this jewel of a species is native to Europe growing in crevices on rock cliffs. It likes good drainage but not too dry so add some fine gravel or sand to your planting mix. We've found it to be quite easy growing it in full sun and it often reblooms later in the year. It has actually been one of our most care-free of all of our Primulas. Unlike a lot of true alpines, this seems to tolerate our regular overhead watering in the nursery.

There is no ignoring this Primrose when it is in flower. Some Primula are wee subtle things with no greater effect than the sound of a distant flute teasing the edge of hearing. Primula florindae is a full triumphant symphony with you sitting in the orchestra pit. Big heads of many nodding yellow or orange shaded fragrant flowers. This can make some impressive plants in a good rich moist soil give it what it needs and turn it loose.
Primula kisoana
Primula kisoana
Price: $9.00 In Stock

Quart Pot
A fun Primrose that when settled in and enjoying a rich crumbly soil can really make a nice patch. This spreads by underground rhizomes and is a good colonizer. Some plants when you say colonizer it rightly sounds an alarm much like a submarine klaxon on an emergency dive. Not so this. Rich tomato pink flowers above season interest-extending felty foliage.
Primula prolifera

Price: $9.00 In Stock

Quart Pot
Even on a murky day this can make it seem like the sun is out. Intense rich rings of yellow flowers on stems which in rich boggy sites reach 4' high but in regular good garden soil 3' is perfectly respectable. This has become quite a favorite of ours in our little shaded bog where it just shines in May and June.

Primula sieboldii 'Uchu'
Price: $9.00 In Stock

Medium Band Pot
Bold white flowers with broadly rounded petals on this Japanese selection of the species. In Japan in the wild, this primrose is found on grassy edges and mixed with other plants which provide a dappled light. It is also more adapted than most Primula to a bit of summer dry if need be. There is a plant society in Japan devoted solely to this one species and all of its cultivars - truly a descent into a maelstrom to contemplate the infinite variety and permutations that they have with this one Primula species. Love it when something gets taken to the limit.
Primula sieboldii - Red Form
Primula sieboldii - Red Form
Price: $8.00 In Stock

Quart Pot
Japanese species and in this selection simply known as 'Red Form' for it's dark pink sizable flowers. This is what red is called when a species really doesn't have a true red but everyone sooo wants there to be a good red. Still a top-tier plant making nice clumps and long-lived.
Primula vialii
Primula vialii
Price: $9.00 In Stock

4" Pot
One of the Improbable Primula with Cone Shaped Flowers of Disbelief! Foxtail Spires of Red Bracts Open to Orchid Pink Flowers! Ok, I'll quit - but it does seem like it belongs on the pages of Believe It Or Not. Moist conditions are best in filtered light and this really can light it up. Best divided every 3-4 years.to maintain vigor or grow some from seed you collect. This was introduced by one of the greatest plant hunters of all time, the rugged Scotsman George Forrest who found it in western China. George named it Primula littoniana after his good friend the Consul of Tengyueh but in botanical nomenclature precedence is everything and as this was named earlier as P. vialii by another plant hunter, the French missionary Pere Delavay then vialii it is. The good news for Consul Litton was that he sadly died in China but went to his grave before learning that littoniana lost out to vialii.
Primula vulgaris ssp. sibthorpii

Quart Pot
This is one of the unsung workhorses in our garden. So it's high time to treat it to a well-deserved and long overdue song. C'mon now - get your hoodies on and lets rap it out:: A peerless performer that is first to bloom this repels the gray cloudy doom that passes for spring in the Northwest which usually feels like an inquest. I'm telling it true - this gots da power often you see no foliage - covered by flowers. Grow this in sun or shade you feel like you got it made Word up, yo and listen to my rap or you'll miss the secret of mulching with cow crap. Drop a dime bag of moo, the first one's free You'll see why it makes everything look so pretty. Copyright 2011. Lyrics and music by C-rapper.

Primula x forsteri 'Bileckii'

This is a dandy cross between Primula minima which is really tricky to grow and P. hirsuta which is a lot easier. The result has the charm of minima without the temperament and the ease of cultivation which hirsuta offers. Great foliage and vibrant reddish flowers. Good drainage and morning sun.
