Primula ‘Wanda Lilac Colors’

English Primrose

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.445.510

Primrose flowers are a true sign of spring, and they combine so beautifully with all kinds of flowering bulbs. The ‘Wanda’ types of English Primrose are vigorous and easy plants, smothered with flowers in early spring. This strain produces blooms in varying shades of lilac, less purple than the original ‘Wanda'. Divide plants every 2 to 3 years in early fall, to maintain their vigour. These perform best with a rich, moist soil. Will tolerate full sun in cool summer regions. Keep an eye out for slugs.
