Primula Sinensis, Chinese Primrose, 



Many persons seem to think Primulas are successfully propagated 

 only in the greenhouse, hence we find amateurs often reluctant 1 

 attempt their culture. They are unequalled as winter bloomers, 

 easily grown if the right conditions are observed, and give 

 succession of flowers throughout the season, and are 

 prized for both beauty and their delicate fragrance 

 Single fringed, finest mixed. Pkt., 50 seeds, 10 cts. 



Primula, Double. 



Best mixed, all colors. Pkt, 30 seeds, 14 cts. 



Primula Obconica. 



Primula Obconica is as near an everblooming 

 plant as it is possible to obtain. It has been 

 known to flower for over twelve months without 

 a break. Pkt, 100 seeds, 5 cts. 



Polyanthus, Primula Elatior. 



Showy, early spring, free flowering plants, fine 

 for either pot or outdoor culture, hardy perennials; 

 9 inches. The best single, all colors mixed. 

 Pkt, 200 seeds, 5 cts. 



Rose, Multiflora True. 



With seed of these new Roses, plants may be had in bloom 

 in sixty days, from the time of sowing. Plant at any time. 

 They grow quickly and flowers appear in large clusters, and 

 in such quantity that a plant looks like a bouquet. Perfectly 

 hardy in the garden, where they bloom all summer. In pots 

 they bloom both summer and winter. From a packet of seeds 

 one will get Roses of various colors — white, pink, crimson, etc. 

 No two alike and mostly perfectly double and very sweet. 

 Pkt, 30 seeds, 8 cts. 



Platycodon, Chinese Bell Flower. 



Hardy perennials, producing very showy flowers during the 

 whole season. They form large clumps, and are excellent for 

 planting in permanent borders or among shrubbery. Mixed 

 blue and white. Pkt, 500 seeds, 5 cts. 



Star Primula. 



Primula Stellata Hybrida. 



Many of the blooms are equal in 

 form and purity of color to those of 

 the Chinese Pri-nula, and, as they 

 last longer and the plants can be 

 much more easily grown, they de- 

 serve to be widely cultivated. Of 

 the seed now offered the mixture 

 contains seven charming and 

 distinct colors. Pkt, 100 seeds, 8 cts. 



The Mexican Primrose. 



The superb colors, combined 

 with airy grace and a beautiful 

 form make a flower which is almost 

 perfection. The plant seldom 

 grows over ten inches in height, 

 but inclines to a trailing habit, 

 sweeping its branches out over the 

 ground, or drooping out over the 

 sides of the pot, holding its large 

 silky flowers erect. As a window 

 plant it combines great hardiness 

 and ease of culture with unrivaled 

 beauty and profusion of bloom. In 

 the open ground it grows freely 

 and profusely; will thrive well 

 under any and all conditions and 

 bloom the year round in pots, or 

 during the spring, summer and 

 fall in the garden. 



Pkt, 100 seeds, 6 cts. 



Mi*s C. H. Lippincott: 



Dear Friend: The seeds I 

 got from you have always done 

 well. My sweet peas are up 

 and doing so nicely; every seed 

 grew by the way they look, so I 

 thought I would send for rose 

 bushes. Hope they will prove 

 as satisfactory as your seeds. 

 Respectfully yours, 



Mrs. Emma Von Drew.
