Primula Julian / Primrose Flowers - stock photo

Primula Julian is hybrid of primula polyantha and primula juliae. This popular species in Japan was introduced by repeated crossing of these two species. It is perennial plant, but in Japan it is normally used as annual, because it is difficult for the species to survive the hot summer in the outside. It blooms from November to April and suitable for use in garden beds and borders as well as in containers. The showy flower color ranges from red, red purple, pink, orange, blue, white, yellow to shades in between.
