    Few flowers bring as much joy at the end of winter as Primrose 'Scentsation Rhubarb and Custard'. Bred for both its exceptional fragrance and beautiful colour, it produces masses of creamy yellow blooms, each delicately edged in warm rhubarb pink. Flowering from late winter into spring, it's a wonderful way to brighten the garden just as the growing season begins.

     

    Naturally compact and bushy, it's ideal for patio containers, window boxes and the front of borders, where both its cheerful flowers and sweet perfume can be enjoyed up close. Plant it near paths, entrances or seating areas so its scent can be appreciated every time you pass.

     

    Easy to grow and low maintenance, this hardy primrose thrives in fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Pair it with pansies, violas, bellis and spring-flowering bulbs to create colourful seasonal displays filled with early spring charm.
