The third member of the primrose triumvirate is Primula polyantha, the English primrose. VARIETIES: There are more than 400 types of primroses, some noted for masses of small flowers, others for taller stems and trumpet-shaped blooms, but the varieties most often found at local nurseries this month are the early flowering primula acaulis - or English primrose - noted for its charming (somewhat like a pansy) flat, five-petaled flowers in brilliant colors with large crinkled leaves sold in small six-packs or quart-size containers. Turning to the shady flower bed, English primroses would definitely be the choice for colorful relief from the December garden blahs. |
