General
- Primula vulgaris
(syn. P. acaulis (L.) Hill) is a species of Primula.
- The common name is
Primrose, or occasionally Common Primrose or English Primrose to
distinguish it from other Primula species also called primroses.
- The primrose was
Benjamin Disraeli's favourite flower, and the Primrose League was given
its name in honour of this.
- Primrose is
a small plant, typically no more than 10 cm (4") high.
- Primroseproduces
flowers which generally vary in colour from pale cream to deep yellow.
Growth
- The
production of two different types of flowers by Primroses, the pin-eyed
and thrum-eyed, is an adaptation to promote cross pollination.
- Primrose Need Well
Drained , Moist, Fertile Soil.
- Primroses may be
grown indoors if you are able to provide them with cool night
temperatures of 50-60 degrees F., high humidity, filtered sun and moist
soil.
- They can, be grown
successfully if they are watered generously in dry weather and if
they're given a soil so rich in humus or vegetable matter it acts like a
sponge and soaks in and retains moisture easily.
Cultivation
Process
- The seeds of
Primroses are very tiny.
- Water primrose can be
cut and the roots can be dug up but physical control is difficult
because it can reestablish from seeds or remaining roots.
- Water primrose can be
propagated by transplanting whole plants into moist soils during the
early spring.
- Seed of primrose can
be sown in spring or in autumn and punnets of seedlings or small pots
are readily available in nurseries.
Market
There appears to be a
small market for the ground portion of primrose, with prices ranging
from $7.50 to $34.96 per lb dw.
