Primula (or primrose) is a genus of perennial herbaceous plants in the Primulaceae family, comprising about 500 species valued for their early, abundant, and vibrant flowering in early spring.
It derives from the Latin primulus ("first"), as the flowers are among the first to appear after the snow melts.
Mostly perennial plants; less frequently, annuals or biennials.
Flowering begins in late February or April and continues until early July, depending on the species and region.
Some species (for example, Primula marginata) contain saponins and can cause skin irritation upon contact or be toxic to pets.
Compact bushes ranging from 10 to 30–50 cm in height (depending on the species).
Predominantly early spring (April–May), but some species bloom in summer.
Most garden species overwinter successfully in the ground in temperate climates.
