Primula seeds are sometimes slow in germinating. In every instance where the seed does not germinate we would advise 
holding the flats for we have had seed come a year after sowing. 
To assure more rapid germination we sow most of our Primulas in the early Spring. With some freezing weather our re¬ 
sults have been highly satisfactory.
