Primula japonica Apple Blossom

Primula japonica 'Apple Blossom'

This species is a robust candelabra primula, one of the earliest to flower, with about six whorls of large flowers, opening in succession up the flower stems. The foliage dies down for the winter, reappearing in early spring. 'Apple Blossom' is just as its name implies, a lovely pale lilac pink, with a red eye.
