 | ELIZABETHAN PRIMROSE & AURICULA GIFT PACK Ref: 2100A
Six varieties, separately packed provide an opportunity to remenisce and with such names as Gold Lace, Drumstick and a mixture of Auriculas who wouldn't be tempted to indulge. Note: This hand painted packet is an ideal gift for special occasions. Nowhere does nature display her vivid colours so appealingly than in the Primrose and Auricula family. Fashion dictates. Auriculas scream contrast. Green with red. Blue with greens and yellow with blue. Iridescent and irresistible would be an understatement. Mixed with Primroses in every shade imaginable, topped by Gold Laced Polyanthus and bordered by Drumstick Primulas the Auricula not only holds its own but compliments the other 5 Primulas included in the packet of SIX SEPARATELY LABELLED SACHETS.
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS
Primulas by nature prefer cool conditions. Cover the seed only very lightly, water and place in a permanently shady place. When 4-6 true leaves are showing, transplant into individual 31/2inches pots ready for garden planting or cold indoor use in the case of Auriculas. Very choice plants requiring to be kept just moist constantly.
