Hungarian-speaking jellies: what does "tubarózsa" mean?

Asked by 2davidc8 (10189points) October 9th, 2013

Online dictionaries translate the word as “polyanthus”. So, is it an ordinary garden primrose, such as this one?

I don’t know Hungarian but tubarozsa sure sound like tuberose which is a flowering plant. Here’s an article about it.

@janbb So, it’s a Polianthes tuberosa as opposed to Primula polyantha?
