Primula Mollis  seed

Primula Mollis is a rare, unusual plant that has thin stems that hold numerous umbels of lovely pinkish colored flowers with yellow centers. The leaves of these plants are rounded, fleshy, and softly haired, which makes the overall appearance of the plant quite unique. This hardy plant will grow between 10 – 18 inches tall and prefers moist but well-drained soil. The blooming season ranges from spring to early summer, and an interesting fact about this plant is the Latin word primus, which means first, indicates this genus as being one of the first to flower in the spring. This is an easy to grow plant, which prefers part shade, however, it will need some protection in the winter if the temperature ends up dropping below -8°C. These are resistant to deer and rabbits and are also self-seeding which is always a good thing. They will do great in borders in your garden and are suitable for containers.

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!!!!
