Primula prolifera

This is a marvellous bright yellow candelabra. This species candelabra is one of the tallest we have as some plants will produce stems of up to one metre tall and will really stand out in the garden. It also has the advantage of keeping its leaves in the winter so there is no danger of digging it up by mistake. 

Royal Horticultural Society’s Award of Garden Merit
