Days to Maturity: 140 to 154

Often grown as annuals, the polyanthus varieties, also known as primroses, in the Lighthouse Mix Primula offer early to mid-spring interest. One of the earliest bloomers, these primroses augur spring with a cheerful carnival of colors in vibrant yellow, pink, rose, and blue. Borne in dense clusters on a long, stout flower stalk, the flowers attract butterflies and other pollinators to the garden.

Lighthouse Mix Primula primroses have a compact, uniform habit of deeply textured, hairy, semi-evergreen to evergreen foliage that forms a rosette after blooming, giving them multi-season value.

Cold hardy to Zone 4, primroses like cool roots and require cool temperatures and high humidity to produce high-quality plants. Given good air circulation and adequate water, they are relatively easy to grow. The plants prefer rich, humusy, moist, well-drained soil and full sun in cool early spring temperature
