Primrose leaves

Alidonne · May 2015

i have quite a few primroses in pits in my garden ( as it is all patio). I have noticed that my primroses seem to have loads of big leaves and it looks like the flowers are struggling to get through. Would I damage or kill the plant if I removed some of the leaves to make space for the flowers?

Primulas tend to grow more leaves after flowering and get quite congested. Now is a good time to divide the plants and make more. Here's a video to show you how

But do remember that plants have as many leaves as they need. You are doing the plant no favours if you cut off their leaves.

By all means split up the clumps. Water them well until they are established when you replant.
