Violetta' is a blue primrose featuring exceptionally dark violet-blue blooms; the inner petals have intense royal purple tones, while the outer petals display cooler bluish hues that soften toward the edges. Look closely and you’ll spot a cheerful yellow eye occasionally peeking through the lush semi-double to fully double ruffled layers.
Primula (Primrose) is a timeless spring-blooming perennial, treasured for its abundance of vibrant flowers.
Violetta Primrose (Primula vulgaris 'Violetta' BOUQUET PERFECT™) is a Proven Winners® selection in the BOUQUET PERFECT™ Series. True to its name, this series is celebrated for its beautifully rounded, balanced habit - creating the look of a perfectly arranged bouquet whether planted in the garden or showcased in containers.
Exceptionally floriferous and vigorous, the upward-facing blooms sit gracefully atop crisp, crinkled, bright green foliage. Sweetly fragrant and impressively long-blooming, the flowers of this double purple blue primrose attract bees and butterflies from March through May.
Hardy to Zone 4a, BOUQUET PERFECT™ Violetta Primrose thrives in partial shade and consistently moist, well-drained soil. While this double primrose tolerates sunnier locations, it may enter dormancy during hot, dry summers if moisture levels are not maintained.
Forming compact, bouquet-like clumps up to 30 cm (12 in.) wide, Primula vulgaris 'Violetta' is ideal for borders and edging, and transforms containers and window boxes into professional-looking floral arrangements. It also performs beautifully in rock gardens, open woodland settings, and along streams, bogs, or ponds.
Low-maintenance and versatile, this charming perennial brings the hope, joy, and brightness that define spring. Plant Violetta Primrose and watch your garden bloom into a showy display of perfect bouquets.
