Primula capitata noverna Deep Blue


Primula capitata noverna Deep Blue (Primula capitata)

A bit of an impulse buy and having brought them home find out they can be temperamental.
I've planted them alongside P. vialii, which in this spot in the garden reliably comes back each year.

Very unusual and it lengthens the flowering season too.

They are just short lived naturally so usually set lots of seed.
Have tried them but to dry in the summer.

Have you been getting rain Karen? It seems to be missing me out!
Thanks everyone, and thanks Brian. I'll scatter seed in this area when they've finished.
