Primula 'Belarina Amethyst Ice' (Primrose)

Primrose 'Belarina Amethyst Ice', Primula 'Kerbelpicotee', Belarina Series


An outstanding double primrose, Primula 'Belarina Amethyst' is a short-lived, semi-evergreen perennial forming a rosette of bright green leaves, topped with sturdy stems bearing large, fragrant double flowers. Blooming profusely from early to late spring, the incredibly pretty, rich blue-purple blossoms are adorned with a thin white ribbon at their petal tips, adding definite charm to the plant. Very floriferous and vigorous, the upright-facing blooms look great at the front of borders or in containers.

  • Grows up to 5-8 in. tall (12-20 cm) and 10-12 in. wide (25-30 cm).
  • A full sun or part shade lover, it is best grown in humus-rich, moderately fertile, consistently moist, well-drained soils.
  • This plant is very versatile and can be used in beds and borders, cottage gardens, city gardens, or in containers. Perfect for underplanting shrubs and roses.
  • A low-maintenance plant (cut back after flowering). Watch out for pests such as aphids, vine weevil, slugs, leaf and bud eelworms, leaf-mining flies, and glasshouse red spider mite. May be subject to leaf spot, primula brown core, and gray molds.
  • Propagate by division in the fall or after flowering.
