Primula 'Blue Sapphire'



18th April 2013


An attractive and robust selection from the Barnhaven Double primroses which have an established track record for survival (there are a great many double primroses being produced for the pot plant market but they are not all reliably perennial in the garden).
Double primroses come and go in popularity. Micropropagation made them easily available but it also allowed the distribution of short lived forms in the 1980's, which damaged their reputation. A few reliable ones have hung on, and a few good new ones have arrived but the waters are still being muddied by sub-standard introductions with a death wish.
