{"product_id":"col-6pk-pri-spr-sal-mixx1","title":"Primrose 'Springtime Salmon Mix' (Primula vulgaris) – Spring Bedding Plants (12 Plants in 2 x 6-Cell Trays)","description":"\u003cp\u003ePrimroses are one of the best-loved spring bedding plants in Britain, and this Salmon Primetime Mix brings warm salmon tones to beds, borders, window boxes and patio containers from late winter into spring. You receive 12 primrose plants, growing in 2 plastic 6-cell trays, one plant to a cell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mix blends well-known Primula vulgaris types, including Bonelli, Alaska and Husky, for a layered display of colour. These are compact, low-growing, rosette-forming plants with crinkled mid-green leaves. Individual flower colours within the mix may vary slightly, as is usual with mixed packs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrimroses are fully hardy and will cope with a British winter outdoors. They prefer partial shade and moist, humus-rich soil that drains well, and will take full sun only where the soil stays moist. They grow happily in pots, window boxes and hanging baskets as well as in the ground. Water regularly to keep the roots moist without waterlogging, and feed every two weeks with a balanced liquid fertiliser while in flower to encourage prolonged blooms. Bees and other pollinating insects visit the flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough usually bought as one-season spring colour, these are true perennials and will come back year after year if planted out in the garden. Primulas can cause stomach upset and skin irritation, so wash your hands after handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Primrose, Garden Primrose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Primula vulgaris and acaulis bedding primroses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 15-20cm tall and 20-25cm wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low-growing, compact rosette-forming plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spring bedding, cottage borders, rockery planting, patio containers, window boxes, hanging baskets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-green, crinkled, oval leaves forming a low basal rosette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late winter to late spring (January to May)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Salmon tones in a mix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Partial shade; full sun only where the soil stays moist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, humus-rich, moisture-retentive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy across Britain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low; water regularly and feed during flowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Winter and spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy spring bedding plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KOKE House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54061538902282,"sku":"COL-6PK-PRI-SPR-SAL-MIXX1","price":22.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/2479\/8218\/files\/4_3ac61443-db60-486f-ba54-9bbcdbbeea5c.png?v=1793895333","url":"https:\/\/kokehouse.co.uk\/products\/col-6pk-pri-spr-sal-mixx1","provider":"KOKE House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
