Primavera™ Navy Blue Cineraria (Pericallis)

Primavera™ Navy Blue is a mounded Pericallis hybrida with large, single flowers in a deep blue shade. Danziger lists this early-flowering cultivar at 12–14 inches high and 10–12 inches wide, with suitability for small pots and landscape use. ## Planting and Use Use this compact plant as a seasonal accent in containers, patio pots, or borders. Its mounded habit helps fill small arrangements without obscuring nearby plants. Danziger describes the Primavera series as capable of flowering at lower temperatures and identifies its flowers as pollinator friendly. ## Growing Conditions North Carolina State Extension describes florist’s cineraria as a cool-season plant that flowers in winter and spring. It grows best in partial shade with fertile, well-drained, consistently moist soil; in North Carolina it is used as an annual or houseplant. These general species recommendations complement the selection-specific size and habit above, but do not establish a USDA zone for this named variety.

Place plants in partial shade and avoid hot, dry positions. Remove faded flower heads as needed to maintain a neat display; treat the plant as seasonal color outside suitable cool-season conditions.
