Garden Treasures: Primroses and other Primula for the American Garden – Zoom Meeting February 5, 2025 – 7:00 – 8:00 pm EST
The New England Chapter of The American Primrose Society (APS) invites you for a discussion of primroses, cowslips, and candelabras. We’ll take a look at the amazing diversity within the genus Primula and identify those species and varieties that can perform well in American gardens. Whether or not you’re familiar with names like Sieboldii, Cowichan, and Juliana, we hope you’ll join us for a colorful winter diversion among the primroses.
