primevère dressée

Coastal primrose (Primula stricta) is a small perennial herb in the family Primulaceae, distributed across Arctic and subarctic coastal habitats in Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Svalbard, and northern Russia. It grows on rocky shores, coastal meadows, salt marshes, and gravelly riverbanks at high latitudes, often in areas subject to periodic saltwater inundation or spray. Plants produce a basal rosette of oblong, slightly mealy leaves and erect scapes bearing small, pale pink to lilac flowers with a yellow eye, typical of the genus. Primula stricta is one of the northernmost-occurring primroses, adapted to the short growing seasons and cold temperatures of the high Arctic. It relies on insect pollination when conditions allow, though like many Arctic plants, it may set seed through self-fertilisation. The species is assessed as Least Concern by the IUCN, with populations spread across a vast circumpolar range. It faces long-term pressure from climate change, which is altering the phenology and hydrology of Arctic coastal habitats. It is considered an indicator species for intact high-latitude coastal ecosystems.
