Primula sinopurpurea is an unusual form of Primula due to the shape of the leaves, which are much longer and pointed than most Primula. This Tibetan treasure is a very odd soft purplish mauve colored petals while the center is black and has a white ring dividing the mauve and the black, which gives it a most unusual coloring. Great when planted in groupings and in pots as well. Just keep out of Sun and enjoy the colorful spread they will provide.

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.
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!!!!
