Our special, hand selected strain of very large flowered primroses in almost every colour of the rainbow. Ideal for spring flowers, spring flowering pot plants and bedding in sun or part shade.
Sowing Instructions. Sow spring to mid summer in good seed compost. Sow seed on surface of compost and gently firm. Seal in a polythene bag or cover with a piece of glass and place in a shady spot but do not exclude light which is beneficial for germination. Keep soil damp but not wet. Germination usually takes 10-30 days at 15-18C (60-65F), higher temperatures can prevent germination. Once most of the seeds have come up, sprinkle a tiny amount of sieved compost over the roots to anchor them.
Growing Instructions. Transplant when large enough to handle in 7.5cm (3in) pots. Grow cool and fairly moist and later plant out 23cm (9in) apart in the autumn where they are to flower in good soil, sun or part shade.
Aftercare Instructions. Contact with the leaves may cause skin allergy to some people with sensitive skins.
