flarvard University Botanic Garden, Cambridge, Mass. 
Messrs. R. & F. Farquhar & Co.; 
Gentlemen: For the last ten years I have grown Chinese Primroses from your seed. The seeds always 
germinate quickly and produce strong, vigorous, compact plants. The flowers are produced abundantly, and a 
splendid feature about them is that they stand well above the foliage. Your Chiswick Red and Karquhar’s Giant 
White are especially g0od.. Farguhar’s Improved Blue ts the best blue Primrose in cultivation. Your Primula 
Stellata is very fine, espectally the white variety, for which I received last year a First Class Certificate of Merit 
from the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. 
Yours respectfully, 
ROBERT CAMERON, Superintendent.
