Primula Ruby Queen

Primula Ruby Queen is a stunning addition to any cool-season garden. With its rich ruby-red blooms perched on delicate lacy stems, this variety delivers a bold splash of colour just when the garden needs it most. From late winter through to spring, it offers a long-lasting floral display that brightens up even the dullest corners. The vivid red tones contrast beautifully with lush green foliage, creating a striking visual impact. Whether you’re designing a cottage-style garden, refreshing your borders, or adding a pop of cheer to your outdoor pots, Ruby Queen is a dependable and charming choice.

This primula variety thrives in cooler temperatures, making it ideal for early-season planting. It also adapts well to partial shade, especially in warmer regions, and asks for little more than regular moisture and a bit of care. Loved for both its performance and its dramatic colour, Ruby Queen is perfect for gardeners looking to combine elegance and reliability. Its compact habit makes it easy to pair with other seasonal favourites, from pansies to violas.

Usage
Plant Primula Ruby Queen in lightly shaded spots with well-drained soil and water regularly to keep roots consistently moist. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage fresh growth and extend flowering. Ideal for containers, rockeries, hanging baskets, or mass plantings along garden paths and borders.
