Primula Sinensis. 



Chinese Primrose, 



Many persons seem to think Primulas are 

 successfully propagated only in a green house, 

 hence we find amateurs often reluctant to at- 

 tempt their culture. They are unequalled as 

 winter bloomers, easily grown if the right con- 

 ditions are observed, and give a succession of 

 flowers throughout the season, and are prized 

 for both beauty and their delicate fragrance. 

 Single fringed, finest mixed. Plit., 50 seeds, lOc, 



Primula^ Double, 



Best Mixed, all colors. PkU, 30 seeds, 14 cts. 

 Primula Obconica. 



Primula Obconica is as near an evcrblooming 

 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.

 fine for either pot or outdoor culture, hardy 

 perennials; 9 inches. The best single, all colors

Star Primula, 



Primula 

 Stellata Hybrtda 



Many of the blooms 

 are equal in form and 

 purity of color to those 

 of the Chinese Prim- 

 ula, and, as they last 

 longer and the plants 

 can be much more eas- 

 ily grown, they d e- 

 serve to be widely cul- 

 tivated. Of the seed 

 now offered, the mix- 

 ture 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 goes to 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 pro- 

 fusely; will thrive well 

 under any and all con- 

 ditions and bloom the 

 year round in pots or 

 during spring, summer 

 and fall in the garden. 

 Pkt., 100 seeds, 6 cts.

 the garden where they bloom all summer. In pots they bloom 

 both summer and winter. From a packet of seeds one will
