Description
Primula bulleyana also known as the Bulley’s primula is one of a group of primulas known as the Candelabra primulas or Bog garden primulas that originate from China. They produce lovely whorls of orange flowers on tall stems from May to July and work really well with foliage plants such as Hostas and Ferns. Best in partial or full shade though the wetter the soil the more sun they will tolerate. Very long lived as long as they aren’t allowed to dry out. Can self-hybridize if planted near other primulas in this group.
Supplied as a professional size plant in a 2L pot, all plants are health checked before sending with a Scottish plant passport. Depending on when in the season you buy, they may be getting ready to flower, in flower, or have passed flowering. If bought in winter the foliage may be dying back, but the plants will re-grow the following season.
Ensure the plant is watered in, and regularly after initial planting until new growth is seen which generally indicates the plant has started to root into the new position.
Please feel free to contact Borringtons prior to buying with any questions about your prospective purchase.
