Primula denticulata 'Lilac' | Drumstick Primrose
A hardy Primula bearing beautiful clusters of pink and yellow blooms
One of the year’s earlier flowering perennials, this pretty Primula will bear generous clusters of small pink flowers that are gathered around a sunny yellow centre. Each cluster will sit on the apex of an upright stalk, which produces medium-sized leaves. This Primula’s foliage is a refreshing green shade, reflective of the Springly atmosphere that it will bloom under. Rest assured however that this Primula is here to stay, where its flowering will not finish until July. A favourite amongst many, this Primula proudly holds the Royal Horticultural Society’s ‘Award of Garden Merit’ which affirms its reliable nature.

Our herbaceous plants are grown in optimum conditions to ensure that they flourish happily and healthily. Each plant will be sent directly from our specialist nursery based in England.
Please note, your potted plant may not display flowers as soon as it arrives. However, the 'flowering period' box (detailed above), indicates when you can expect flowers to form. Many of our herbaceous perennials also die back in winter, so will have little growth in spring, but grow quickly once sunlight hours improve.
Packaging
Here at Primrose, we treat sustainability as of utmost importance, and as such, each perennial or alpine will be delivered in eco-friendly packaging that will nor compromise on their protection.
The intuitive box design is entirely plastic free, and optimised to keep your plants safe in transit. The cardboard packaging is fully recyclable, resulting in a more environmentally-conscious product.
