Winter doesn't want to go away yet, but you can already feel some liveliness in nature.The heralds of the new are, first of all, plants whose biological clock can not be deceived in any way.
The varieties from the Belarina series are especially attractive.These plants were bred in Great Britain, and their main advantage is early flowering. Belarina primroses have dense rose-like inflorescences surrounded by a dark green rosette of leaves.This can be seen clearly in the large photo at the top.Some varieties have a pleasant scent.Another feature that proves the superiority of full varieties over straight ones are effective tonal transitions.
Some flowers are slightly mottled, others have a bright collar.Most of the new forms are propagated in laboratory conditions by laborious tissue culture method, therefore they are more expensive than simple varieties obtained from seeds. However, the expense pays off, because flowering is much more luxuriant.
In the apartment, we display primroses on a bright and not too warm stand. The substrate must be kept in moderate humidity.Plants are best watered from the bottom, that is through the stands, because new primroses are sensitive to wetting. If they are given too much water, they will rot.To stimulate the development of hidden buds, remove the faded flowers on a regular basis. Feeding is usually not necessary as the growers ensure that the plants in the nursery are well nourished.
Primroses can be moved to the terrace when the frost is over.Plants do well individually and in groups . They can be combined with daffodils, squills, snacks, forget-me-nots. They look nice in the company of grasses.
