Candelabra Primrose

	Candelabra Primrose The name candelabra primula or candelabra primrose refers to species and cultivars of ''Primula'' section ''Proliferae'' (formerly ''Candelabra''), originating mainly in the far east. They are characterised by whorls of flowers formed in circles at intervals around strong vertical stems, in many brilliant colours, flowering over a long period from Spring to Summer. They are popular ornamental subjects for moist, heavy, neutral or acidic soil. They associate well with other plants, such as rhododendrons, which enjoy similar conditions.
