Product Description
Our Primula Wanda Mix offers a rich, low-growing tapestry of jewel-toned flowers that brighten the garden from late winter into spring. Each bloom is centred with a cheerful yellow eye, surrounded by velvety petals in shades ranging from deep violet and magenta to soft pink and lilac.
These compact, hardy perennials reach around 15 cm in height, forming neat clumps of crinkled green foliage. They thrive in moist, fertile, well-drained soil and prefer partial shade, though they’ll tolerate sun in cooler conditions. Ideal for the front of borders, patio containers or naturalising in lightly shaded spots, they’re also a reliable source of early nectar for pollinators.
We recommend planting our Wanda Mix alongside spring-flowering bulbs such as Crocus or dwarf Narcissus for a dynamic seasonal contrast. Position near walkways or seating areas to enjoy their vivid colours up close during the first signs of spring.
We guarantee our great value mixture packs contain a comprehensive blend of variety and colours. By definition, the components of the mixtures are not labelled/named on arrival.

Growing at a glance…
Our plants are available in two main formats to suit different gardening needs and planting times: Maxi plug plants and garden-ready plug plants.
Maxi plugs are young, UK-grown plants that will need care and attention. Supplied in trays of 33 or 66, they measure approximately 6-9 cm in height with a 2.2 cm plug width. When potted up and grown for a few weeks, they are capable and frost-hardy enough for winter conditions.
For a more immediate planting solution, our garden-ready alternatives come in trays of 20 or 30 larger plugs, each up to 15 cm tall with a plug width of around 5 cm. These robust plants can be planted straight into beds, borders or containers upon arrival and are well suited for both spring and autumn planting - though they should be avoided during periods of severe frost.
Regardless of type, all plants arrive nursery-fresh in protective packaging and benefit from regular watering after planting to help roots establish. For best results, plant in a weed-free location with adequate sunlight and continue to deadhead or prune as needed to encourage healthy, prolonged growth.
