Primula allionii is a species of flowering plant in the family Primulaceae, native to southern France and northern Italy where it is found on cliffs at an altitude of 700–1,900 metres (2,300–6,200 ft).[1] It is a small, spreading, evergreen perennial growing to 10 centimetres (3.9 in) tall by 20 centimetres (7.9 in) wide, with leathery, hairy leaves and pink flowers in late winter and early spring.[2]
The specific epithet allionii honours the Italian botanist Carlo Allioni.[3]
It requires well-drained alkaline soil and dry conditions, and is usually cultivated in an alpine house.[4]
