Green primroses – a recommendation…
Primulas “Francesca” and “Green Lace” are exquisite – petals of a pale green the colour of a Laduree bag, with, in the case of “Francesca”, the faintrst shading towards grey- green. The flowers have central eyes of gold and are held high above the crinkled leaves so there’s no risk of them visually getting lost in an amorphous mass of green. Mine came from Cottage Nurseries and even a few days waiting around in pots, belatedly and sheepishy watered, haven’t damaged their health. After a month or so in my garden, they still look nband-box perfect.
