watering
Water primula 'Wanda Elaine' when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch. This will occur about every 7-14 days or so. Water thoroughly, until the water seeps through the drainage holes, then allow the excess to drain away and discard. Do not add extra fertilizer until the plant is actively growing.
sunlight
Primula 'Wanda Elaine' thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. About 4 to 6 hours of sunlight per day is ideal for this species, with the sun at its brightest during the midday. In order to keep the leaves vibrant, providing the plant with a few hours of morning sun or afternoon sun is also beneficial. The plant will benefit from some protection from direct sun, especially during the hottest part of the day, such as by placing near a window that has a sheer curtain to diffuse the light.
pruning
Primula (Primula 'Wanda Elaine') should be pruned during the late winter or early spring while the plant is still dormant. Pruning should be light and limited to removing dead or damaged leaves, stems and flowers. Pruning back any dead or leggy stems to the base of the plant can help to promote a full and healthy growth. This species of primula may respond well to light shaping and pruning, however it should be done with care in order to maintain the attractive foliage and flowers.
