About this seed

Why gardeners choose this variety

Rose Red Primrose (Primula vulgaris) is a rosette-forming perennial grown for rose-red flowers. Plants typically reach 4-8 inches and flower mainly in spring. Mild winters or particular seed strains may shift flowering earlier; this is a seasonal display rather than continuous flowering through summer to frost.

Choose partial shade with humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil, and protect plants from hot afternoon sun. Allow about 10-12 inches between plants. A mature clump develops over several years, typically 2-5 years, while flowering can begin earlier.

Surface-sow and keep the medium cool and evenly moist. Non-dormant seed may germinate in about 15-20 days at 59-64 F (15-18 C). Dormant seed can need a moist chilling period and considerably longer, so follow the packet's seed-lot guidance and do not discard trays solely because a short germination window has passed.
