Primula Overload mix

Primula Overload! This pack of seed has over 30 varieties of primulas in the mix. I found them in my favorite English Nursery where they hybridize themselves, or nature does it for them and the amount of different primulas they grow is insane. They offered this primula mix of what they said were all the primulas they grow, which would be much more than 30 varieties, I just averaged that. This is for the gardner who loves a surprise and has the patience to wait and see what they get. But it is a lot of bang for the buck, so to speak. The scientific name “Primula” is a diminutive of the Latin primus, “prime”, alluding to the fact that this flower is among the first to appear in spring. These popular ornamental plants can be found all around the world, from the temperate climate of the northern hemisphere to the tropical mountains in Ethiopia, Indonesia, and New Guinea. So if you love a good deal and the element of surprise, this pack of primula is for you.

Sowing Advice from a great English Nursery

 

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.

                                 

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!

SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!

ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.

DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.

Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
