The author shows how easy primroses are to cultivate in this illustrated handbook. Native to Britain and Europe, the primrose has been cultivated for years, and is one of the first garden plants to bloom in the spring. From the original pale yellow flower has come a great number of modern hybrids, in a wide variety of colours. The book includes notes on soil composts, raising from seed, growing in pots, controlling pests and diseases, and a detailed primrose grower's calendar.
