Flowering
There's something special about the first primroses of the year, and 'Husky Appleblossom' is one you'll look forward to every winter. Its beautifully scented flowers open with rich rose-pink centres surrounding a bright yellow eye, gradually softening to delicate apple blossom pink as they mature. The result is a display that's full of depth, freshness and gentle colour just when it's needed most.
Part of the reliable Husky series, these neat, compact plants flower freely through the cooler months, making them ideal for refreshing beds, borders, patio pots and containers. Their elegant colouring pairs beautifully with spring-flowering bulbs and other seasonal favourites, creating fresh, natural-looking displays that announce the arrival of spring. The simple, open flowers are also a welcome source of nectar and pollen for bees and other pollinating insects on the first mild days of the year.
Easy to grow and dependable in UK gardens, 'Husky Appleblossom' thrives in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Regular deadheading encourages more blooms and helps displays stay looking fresh throughout the flowering season.
How To Grow
Garden Ready Plants:
Garden Ready Plants are supplied well established and can be planted straight into beds, borders, containers or hanging baskets as soon as they arrive. If you can't plant them immediately, keep them well watered in a bright, sheltered spot and stand them in a shallow tray of water for a short time if needed.
Plant into fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Water thoroughly after planting to help establish a strong root system before winter. Once established, plants will usually only need watering during prolonged dry spells.
Many autumn bedding varieties will flower through autumn, slow down during the coldest part of winter, then burst back into flower as temperatures rise in spring. Remove faded blooms when practical to encourage fresh flowers and feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser in early spring to support the next flush of colour.
