Pollinator Garden
Pollinator gardens create an oasis of nature in our parks. Pollinators are animals—bees, butterflies, beetles, hummingbirds, etc.—that transfer pollen from flower to flower, enabling plants to make seeds. Without pollinators many of the foods humans and wildlife depend on, including nuts, fruits and berries would not be available. Pollinator gardens provide critical habitat for these essential creatures and help maintain clean water and air, stabilize the soil, make the ecosystem more resilient and support other native wildlife.
Restrooms
An ADA portable restroom is available at the park.
Smoking Prohibition
Smoking and vaping are prohibited in all City of Boise parks, including within 20 feet of the Boise River Greenbelt, except in designated areas within Ann Morrison and Julia Davis Parks and at city-owned golf courses.
Towing

Master Plan
The Master Plan is a concept drawing illustrating recreation facilities and landscape features planned for a park site. It does not necessarily represent what amenities are currently in a park.
Park Name
Primrose Park is named for a native pollinator that will be incorporated into the park’s garden. Primrose can also be found in the nearby Boise Foothills. Mayor Lauren McLean announced the park’s name at her 2022 State of the City Address. To learn more about the city’s efforts to plant and promote the importance of pollinators in Boise parks, visit our America the Beautiful initiative webpage.
