Primula (Candelabra P.w. Rainbows) Prolifera

Description

Strong stems hold heavy heads of bright flowers arranged in whorls. These plants are easy to germinate, grow and keep, especially on moist, well-manured ground. These are collected from a combination of our best candelabra colours including scarlet, yellow, pink and purple.

Sowing Advice

Primula seeds may be sown in good light conditions at any time onto a loam-based compost, barely cover so that around 50% are still visible. We never use artificial heat, primulas are COOL germinators! As a rule best temperatures are usually between 10 and 15 degrees C. (e.g. a cool greenhouse or northerly window sill) PLEASE NOTE: Temperatures exceeding 15 C can prevent germination, and above 20 C expect very little germination as seeds can go dormant as a protective measure. Germination can take up to 6 weeks, but sometimes takes much longer.
