Masses of large, fragrant blooms in warm sunrise hues make this primrose a perfect pick for lighting up winter gardens. The double flowers emerge in a mix of red, orange, and yellow tones, appearing almost rosebud-like atop dark green foliage arranged in neat rosettes. Semi-evergreen in habit, the oblong leaves remain greener longer than other primroses, providing a lush backdrop for floral colour. Tough and reliably hardy even in cold weather, these charming perennials are ideal for pots, borders, and winter bedding schemes where their abundant blooms can be admired. Easy to grow, 'Sunrise' promises waves of winter cheer where it is needed most.


  • Garden care:
    Plant out in a partially shaded and sheltered position, adding plenty of leaf mould and compost to the planting hole and backfill. Water well until established. Divide large clumps in late spring or early summer after the plant has flowered, preferably during a wet spell.
