A fiery, brilliant red primula with a bright yellow centre, 'Bonneli Flame' is a compact, fully hardy semi-evergreen perennial that combines well with similarly coloured spring bulbs for a striking early season show, either in pots, containers or border edges.
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.
