Primrose Blue Zebra has unusual blue and white striped petals with a bright yellow center that are sure to catch your eye. Blue Zebra lives up to it's name and makes an incredible woodland boarder, or line a path that wanders through the woods. Flowers will bloom in late spring and summer. (Primula acaulis)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
Primrose is one of the earliest spring flowers in Europe. In Old French or medieval Latin "primrose" means "first rose". Easy to grow in humus-rich soil in partial shade to full sun primrose can be used to cover the ground in open woods. Perfect for the edge of the woodland garden. Be careful not to plant too deeply as it will result in crown rot. Attracts Birds and/or Butterflies and is bee friendly. (Primula acaulis)
