Primrose, flowering plants of the genus Primula of the family Primulaceae, with 490–600 species, chiefly occurring in the Northern Hemisphere in cool or mountainous regions. The plants are low-growing, usually perennial herbs; a few are biennials. Most species grow 10 to 20 inches tall, but some are as short as 2 inches and others as tall as 4 feet. Many species are cultivated for their attractive flowers.
The stalked leaves may be long and narrow or roundish and are crowded together. On the lower side the midrib is often prominent. The stalked flowers may be solitary, as in the common primrose (P. vulgaris), or more usually borne in loose umbels. The flowers have a tube with five spreading corolla and may be red, pink, purple, blue, white, or yellow.
