Primula rosea ‘Gigas’
at Digging Dog
Primrose
Derived from the Italian primaverola, the name of this genus pays homage to the way its early blossoms welcome the spring. Many of the more than 400 species are at home in the moist climates of England, New Zealand and the Pacific Coast. The species we offer are cold hardy but can do well in warmer climates so long as they have ample soil moisture. Lovely in drifts, try planting them in a woodland garden, by a pond or streamside. Primula rosea ‘Gigas’ 
One of the loveliest Primulas, ‘Gigas’ pretties up the garden in early spring with carmine-pink flowers. Adorning stout stems, numerous brightly colored blooms gather in good-sized umbels before the rosettes of notched green leaves fully develop. Tuck this small-scale performer into the front row amid Luzula ‘Solar Flair’
and Pulmonaria ‘Little Star’.
Blooms March–April. Size: 8"–10" high x 9" wide; hardy to zone 5. Primula rosea ‘Gigas’ (P-1131)
