Primula 'Dale Henderson' is a plant we acquired in 1996 from the now deceased, plantswoman Dale Henderson of Virginia. In a climate where most primroses fear to tread, Primula 'Dale Henderson' has been a star for more than a quarter century, getting better every year to the point that we finally have enough to share. The vigorous clumps are topped, starting in March, with 6" tall spikes ending in a cluster of cerise-coral flowers, highlighted by a yellow center. We can't say enough great things about this a superb selection. Average to slightly dry soils are perfect.
