Primula ‘Bulleyana’ produces elegant orange candelabra‑style flower whorls above upright green foliage in late spring. These 3 garden‑ready plug plants thrive in moist, semi‑shaded borders or waterside areas and gradually form colourful drifts for years to come.

Primula ‘Bulleyana’ is a classic orange candelabra primrose, known for its tiered whorls of bright flowers held on tall stems above fresh green foliage. Flowering from late spring into early summer, it adds height, structure and warm colour to moist borders and waterside planting schemes.

This moisture‑loving perennial is at its best near pond edges, stream banks, boggy borders or any position with reliably damp soil. However, it also grows beautifully in regular sheltered borders and is a great addition to containers, spring displays, rockeries, gently sloping banks and border fringes.

Over a few seasons, Primula Bulleyana forms clusters and natural drifts, making it a superb choice for cottage gardens and wildlife‑friendly planting.

Your order includes 3 × 5cm garden‑ready plug plants, which can be planted out immediately or potted on until you’re ready. These young plants root quickly when kept consistently moist.
