How To Grow
GROWER TIP: Primrose seeds can be scattered to the surface of the soil, directly in the garden. If you choose to transplant, we recommend sowing in biodegradable CowPots to prevent root shock. Temperatures above 65F are best. Well drained sandy soils are best, but the plants are quite adaptable to many soil conditions.
