Primula Veris Superba. 



( New Giant Hardy Primrose. ) 



We introduced this Giant English Primrose two years since 

 and we are now more than ever impressed with its value. 



In size of flower, it is fully three times as large as any other 

 hardy Primrose, the average size of the flower being over one 

 inch, and we have seen them frequently measuring over 2 

 inches, with trusses of bloom 6 inches in diameter. It is per- 

 fectly hardy, grows from 10 to 12 JBches high, and begins to 

 flower earlier and continues in bloom longer than any other Prim- 

 rose. This alone is sufficient to insure its popularity as a plant 

 for the garden ; but its greatest merit consists in the fact 

 that it is not only one of the easiest plants to force, but a 

 plant that will sell on sight when brought into flower during 

 the early spring months, and especially so when grown as an 

 Easter plant. ' 



Strong plants 75 cents per dozen ; ;^6.oo per 100 ; $50.00 per

Primula Cortusoides Sieboldi. 



These are not so well-known as they deserve ; they are of free, 

 vigorous growth, and can be flowered in pots in early spring, 

 and responding quickly when placed in a temperature of 50 

 degrees, forming pretty pot plants in a short time.
