Planting & Sowing Instructions:
-
Start Indoors (Optional):
-
If planting in cooler climates, it's recommended to start primula seeds indoors about 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
-
Sow seeds in seed trays or pots filled with a light, well-draining seed-starting mix.
-
Lightly press seeds into the soil surface without covering them, as they need light to germinate.
-
Keep the soil moist but not soggy, and place the container in a cool location with indirect light.
-
-
Germination:
-
Germination typically takes 15-30 days at temperatures between 60-65°F (15-18°C).
-
Once seedlings emerge, provide them with bright, indirect light to prevent them from becoming leggy.
-
-
Transplanting Outdoors:
-
When the seedlings are large enough to handle and after the threat of frost has passed, harden them off by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week.
-
Transplant the seedlings into your garden in areas that receive partial to full shade.
-
Space the plants 8-12 inches apart to allow for adequate air circulation and growth.

Care Tips:
-
Primula Malacoides thrive in cooler temperatures and require consistent moisture to grow well.
-
Regularly water the plants, but ensure that the soil has good drainage to avoid root rot.
-
Fertilize sparingly with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer to encourage blooming during the spring season.
