Notes
'Wanda Dark Pink' mosquito bills (Primula 'Wanda Dark Pink') is a perennial for ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 2, or down to -50°F (-46°C). This plant likes part sun to full shade and average to moist soil. Fragrant hot pink flowers with yellow eyes bloom in early to late spring above burgundy leaves, and bees visit them. Rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Divide it every three years after blooming to keep it vigorous.
Pairs well with American maidenhair fern, Spring Beauty Siberian squill, and Blue bead lily.
