Care Guide
Planting advice for your primroses:
- Plant primroses where they can get some shade - as a woodland native they thrive out of the sun. Ensure that they are kept well watered.
- Primroses enjoy moist, well-drained soil. Established plants can be planted out anytime, unless the soil is waterlogged or frozen. For best results, plant out from July to early October.
- If planting in a container, fill with multipurpose compost about three quarters full. Remove the plant from its existing pot or tray and carefully place into position.
- Add the remaining soil to the plant pot and press firmly into place then water well.
- If planting in the ground, dig a hole the same size as the plant’s root ball. Place the plant in position, firm down the soil and water immediately.
