The Primrose Bright Mix Bedding Plants bring bold colour to beds and pots through cold, wet winter weather and into spring, when little else is in bloom. Botanically known as Primula, these hardy perennials grow to around 20cm tall. In cooler UK conditions, flowering can continue into summer.
They arrive as trays of 6 mature plants, ready to go straight into garden beds, borders, patio pots and containers. The flowers have a delicate scent and their pollen attracts pollinating insects, including bees and butterflies, so they suit cottage gardens, wildlife gardens and rockeries alike.

Watering Water deeply after planting and keep the root zone consistently moist while the rose establishes. Once established, water thoroughly during dry spells, directing water to the base rather than over the foliage. Container-grown roses dry out faster and should be checked regularly in warm weather.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile, well-drained loam. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Mulch after planting and keep the root zone free from prolonged waterlogging, particularly through winter.
