Primula minima, the fairy primrose (a name it shares with Primula malacoides), is a species of flowering plant in the family Primulaceae, native to the eastern Alps, Carpathians, and Balkan mountain ranges.[1] Although it is a high-elevation species, it relies more than expected on seed dispersal than clonal propagation.[2] It is occasionally available from commercial suppliers.[3]
