Primulas, also known as primroses, are a well-known and much-loved staple of the spring garden. They’re a dream to grow in every possible way—low maintenance, perennial, hardy, reliable, long-flowering, unfussy, bee-friendly, not to mention pretty. Blooming continuously throughout most of spring, Primula plants provide steady and easy colour as the other flowers of the season come and go around them. Use primroses to pad out your spring planting schemes or plant clusters of them in dappled shade areas to achieve a cute cottage-garden effect!
