Primula ‘Obsidian Mix’ is a stunning variety of primroses known for its dramatic, velvety blooms. This mix features a striking combination of deep, dark hues like black, burgundy, and rich purple, often accented with golden centres, making it a standout choice for gardens and containers. The plants are compact, growing to about 15-20cm tall, and thrive in partial shade, making them ideal for brightening up shaded borders or woodland gardens. These perennials are hardy and low-maintenance, tolerating cool climates and providing early-season colour when little else is in bloom. They prefer moist, well-draining soil enriched with organic matter and benefit from regular watering during dry spells. Perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to flower beds, patios, or even window boxes, Primula ‘Obsidian Mix’ is also an excellent companion for ferns, hostas, and other shade-loving plants. Their captivating beauty ensures a dramatic garden display.
