Native to the eastern Himalayas where it grows in shady bogs and alpine meadows it has adapted well to our British climate making it a great addition to the border or pond side, where it will form a good sized clump that can be divided after flowering.

PRIMULA Wilsonii
Primula Wilsonii has rich ,dark red flowers that first appear in May, if we have a warm late summer they will have a second flush in August. Happiest in average to damp, well drained soil in sun or semi shade. Primula Wilsonii is evergreen so it doesn't get lost in the border over winter! and has aromatic roots and leaves, it forms a good clump that can be divided after flowering. It is in my opinion one of the classiest primulas!
