GIANT STAR PRIMROSES 



(Primula Slellala Hyhrida Giganlea) 



This distinct and beautiful type should be better known, 

 for it is an unrivaled winter and spring flowering pot plant 

 and for table decoration unique and effective. The attractive 

 dark foliage on purple stems makes a striking contrast to the 

 innumerable star-shaped flowers borne in graceful pyramidal 

 clusters. The flowers of this new type are much larger than 

 the old type Stellatas and of greater substance.
