Primula vialii
£4.95
Primula vialii is also known as the orchid primula , it’s a real eye catcher when it’s in bloom which it starts to do in May, but if it’s really happy and especially if you keep it well fed after it’s first flush it will often flower well into August. It likes a moist soil in the summer but not too wet in the winter, so it’s those mythical moist but well drained conditions! The leaves are velvety when they first appear becoming smoother as the season progresses
Plants are supplied in 1.5ltr pots.
