Geoff's Primrose and Polyanthus Site

These pages are based on a visit I made to the Barnhaven Primrose nursery based in Brittany. The nursery has changed hands but the policy remains the same and they carry the same varieties.

Each photo should carry a link to the higher resolution image

This a shot of Ty Coz which is the house of Barnhaven Primroses as it was. A gite is attached (in which we stayed).

Barnhaven Primroses was then run by Angela Bradford

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This shows the polytunnels in which the primroses are grown. They hold the benches on which the plants stand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following are 3 photos of the inside of the polytunnels

      

 

The following pages only carry a selection of the large range of Polyanthus and Primrose seed that Barnhaven, at their new location in Brittany, carry. I cannot praise them too highly. Their varieties are fantastic and their seed is excellent. The flowers are pollinated and the seed collected by hand. It is then stored in cold storage and only removed when the order is sent out.

Please visit the Barnhaven Primroses web site for a full list of varieties and illustrations of each and every one.

Anyway thats enough of that lets have a look at the wonderful polyanthus and primroses. Every variety is hand pollinated and Barnhaven are the only firm that supply such individual colours to my knowledge. Anyway they are beautiful plants and the seed is excellent.
