Wild in the hedgerows, really?!

No - the wild 'native' primroses (purple/violet) are still
hibernating, but the ones I raised specifically for winter pots and
tubs (white, pink and yellow) are in full bloom.

Mine were purchased as vulgaris many moons ago and the offspring (with
no other primulas in the vicinity ) though somewhat bedraggled, have
nevertheless been in flower for some weeks.
