    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Primulina 'Piccolo' makes an excellent windowsill or light garden plant because of its small size and ability to flower non-stop. It has an attractive rosette shape with patterned dark leaves highlighted with a variegated band in the middle. Tall sprays of lavender flowers arch out of the center of the plant and the lavender petals flow into a decorative white tubular neck. Primulina is an understory plant in its native habitat and will tolerate the dry environment of a home easily.
