Notes
'Wanda Lilac Colours' mosquito bills (Primula 'Wanda Lilac Colours') 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. Magenta flowers with yellow eyes open in early to late spring, and bees visit the fragrant blooms. Rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Divide it every three years after blooming to keep it vigorous.
Pairs well with Blue bead lily, Crested wood fern, and American maidenhair fern.
