Growing and Maintenance Tips
Primroses perform best in part shade in cool, humus-rich, moisture-retentive soil. Incorporate compost or leaf mould to maintain consistent moisture and fertility. Plants prefer evenly moist conditions and should not be allowed to dry out, especially during active spring growth. Avoid hot, dry sites. Remove spent blooms for a tidy appearance and divide clumps every few years after flowering if needed.
