Primula belarina Valentine

Primula belarina Valentine is a compact, semi-evergreen primrose valued for its fully double, rich red blooms in spring. Ideal for brightening containers, the front of borders and classic cottage-style plantings, it thrives in sun or light shade with a moist, humus-rich, well-drained, moderately fertile soil. Eventual size around 20cm tall and 20cm wide.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
