Nothing says spring like the primrose. Primrose translates as the "first rose" (prima rosa), as its little rose shaped flowers really are one of the fist floral sights to greet a gardener.
Primula, or Primrose are plants that have the same shape and habit as the wild primrose, having individual, fragrant, flowers on a stem that, when picked, another bud grows. F1 Husky Pink Bicolour is a late season flowering variety which bears umbrella shaped clusters of pink, white and yellow flowers on upright stems
A vibrant rainbow of primrose flowers that will brighten the gloomiest of winter days - even through cold, wet and snow! The delicately fragranced blooms of Primrose 'Husky Mixed' burst open in a frenzy of colour that will see you through until late spring. Once established in beds, borders and containers, these easy to grow perennials will virtually look after themselves. Height and spread: 20cm (8").
Alpine varieties require a humus rich, well drained soil and are suitable for rock gardens or alpine houses. Border primulas require more moisture and should be grown where the soil does not dry out or where they can be watered when necessary. They are ideal for bog gardens and waterside planting. Plant border primulas between mid Autumn and mid Spring in full sun or partial shade, incorporating peat or well decayed manure. Plant alpine varieties between early Autumn and mid Spring in sun or partial shade, adding leaf mould or extra gritty sand where necessary.
