This Primrose found throughout Southern Idaho and Eastern Oregon is known to older inhabitants of Boise as Primula wilcoxiana; so named in honor of an early army officer at Fort Boise. It was never described in scientific literature until about 1900, when it was found by a representative of the American Museum of Natural History, Cusick. It was finally named after Cusick, therefore, scientific literature knows it as Primula Cusickiana, but the older residents still collect Primula Wilcoxiana each spring. Phenology: Flowers.
