Primula Hirsuta is a rosette forming evergreen perennial that has spoon-shaped, toothed, medium green leaves and bears pinkish purple blooms in umbels that have white eyes. It has a blooming season that ranges from Spring to Summer, grows best in partial shade in well-draining soil, and will grow up to 6 inches tall. A nice characteristic of this plant is that it is frost hardy. Primulas are happy in a wide range of conditions, are relatively easy to grow, and are not fussy as long as they are given some partial shade and average well-draining soils. These flowers will attract pollinators to your garden such as Butterflies and Bees while being resistant to Deer and Rabbits. These do well in beds and borders in the garden and can also be grown in containers. Primulas are adaptable and versatile. Another great feature of this plant is that it is low maintenance, which every busy gardener can appreciate!

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!!!!
