Primula 'Guinevere'

Unlike its namesake this Primula hybrid hails from the Emerald isles. What it does have in common with the queen of myth is that alluring combination of darkness and light that makes for characters that live on through the ages and plants of timeless garden quality. The soft pink flowers echo chivalric beauty and the darkly sultry foliage speaks of adulterous romance, in this case cuckolding our usual monogamy with species Primulas. These plants come from our established clump in our wet and partly sunny bog garden.
