Gentiana verna needs a sunny position and a moist but free-draining alkaline soil. To achieve this, it is best planted in a gritty mixture of loam, leaf mould, peat or peat substitute, and limestone chippings. A top-dressing of chippings or small gravel is also beneficial.

It is best grown in a rock garden or alpine sink or trough, and is an excellent subject for the alpine house where the beauty of its blooms can be enjoyed at close quarters.
