Watch out for

Slugs and snails: Use physical barriers like copper tape or hand-pick at night; avoid chemical pellets where possible.

Vine weevil: Apply biological nematodes to the soil in autumn or use resistant pots; inspect roots regularly.

Leaf spot: Improve air circulation and remove infected leaves immediately to prevent spread.

Primula rust: Remove affected foliage promptly and ensure good ventilation around the plant base.

Aphids: Encourage natural predators like ladybirds or blast off with a strong jet of water.
