Primula vulgaris 'Prima Bella Creme' | Prima Bella Creme Primrose

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Primula ‘Prima Bella Creme’ bears soft, fully double flowers in creamy ivory to pale butter tones, arranged in tidy rosettes just above the foliage. The layered petals create a plush, rounded look, while the leaves form a low mound of gently crinkled green blades that frame the blooms.

Blooming from late winter through early spring, this cultivar comes from modern European breeding focused on refined color and form. It is well suited to shaded borders, woodland edges, and spring containers, where the flowers provide calm brightness, and in cool autumn and winter conditions the foliage may develop subtle reddish-bronze or purplish tinges.
