Primula Little Queen Lime Plants (Set of 3 or 6)

Brighten up your garden with this set of three Primula 'Little Queen Lime' plants. Part of the popular Little Queen series, these compact primroses produce an abundance of charming lime-green flowers from late winter through spring, adding a fresh burst of colour when the garden needs it most. Their neat, clump-forming habit makes them ideal for borders, rockeries, containers and woodland-style planting schemes.

As a hardy perennial, Primula 'Little Queen Lime' will return year after year, steadily forming larger clumps over time. The soft lime-toned blooms are rich in nectar and pollen, making them a valuable early food source for bees and other pollinators emerging in spring.
