The Primulina are coming!

Primulina pseudoyungfuensis- For the Future

 The Primulina are coming!

 

            Primulina, the Asian Violets, are on the rebound.  I’ve grown and promoted Primulina for 10 years.  The Earth did not shake.  Rarely did anyone buy more than 24 at a time and the most common order is 6 per variety.

 

            If you don’t raise enough chickens, you can’t sell eggs.  Our Primulina production has been limited by not enough stock plant leaves.

 

            I probably have the largest stockpile (tiny) of Primulina in the United States.  Now we’re sticking leaves consistently to finally get quantities of all varieties all the time.

           

There are many varieties here in North America, but the numbers of species and hybrids are exploding in China.  Eventually they may get here.

 

In a trade magazine, I was quoted as saying: “Primulina will replace African Violets as the top flowering houseplant”.  No one has challenged me yet.

 

We are growing more Primulina this year to find out what the true demand is?

 

Buy an Asian Violet and tell your friends.
