Not Your Everyday Polyanthus! This Is A World First... Giant, Double Flowering, Vigorous Perennials With Stems Packed With Up To 15 Blooms Each!

More than 20 years in the making, 'Pretty Polly' has been bred to deliver true spring impact. This is the first giant polyanthus with fully double flowers, offering something genuinely new for pots, patios, porches and spring borders.

Each flower can reach up to 5cm across, with layer upon layer of petals creating a rich, rose-like fullness rather than the flat, open face. This mix includes soft pink, burgundy, deep lilac, tropical tones and jersey cream.

Strong stems can carry up to 15 blooms at once, lifting the display around 25cm above the soil. That extra height helps keep the flowers cleaner and better presented, even when spring rain splashes through the garden.

In testing, these vigorous perennial 'Pretty Polly' plants have survived three successive winters outdoors in UK trials. Plus, because they do not set seed, they keep pushing energy into flowers instead, extending the display exceptionally late for a polyanthus, typically well into mid-May.

Supplied as a set of six plug plants in a mix of soft pink, burgundy, deep lilac, tropical and jersey cream, ready to grow on and plant out.

Top Tips
Plant primroses where they can get some shade - as a woodland native they thrive out of the sun.
Care Information
  • Primroses enjoy moist, well-drained soil.
  • Established plants can be planted out anytime unless the soil is waterlogged or frozen.
  • If planting in a container, fill with multipurpose compost about three quarters full.
  • Remove the plant from its existing pot or tray and carefully place into position.
  • Add the remaining soil to the plant pot and press firmly into place then water well.
  • If planting in the ground, dig a hole the same size as the plant’s root ball.
  • Place the plant in position, firm down the soil and water immediately.
  • To prolong flowering, remove spent flower heads and remove any yellow leaves.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
