PRIMROSE 

 (Giant Fringed Chinese) 



(Primula Sinensis Grandiflora 



Fimbriata) 



Chinese Primroses are among our 



finest winter and spring blooming pot 



plants; of healthy, sturdy growth, 



8 to 12 inches high, and free from 



insects; while they produce for weeks 



large trusses of flowers, which, in our 



new Giant varieties, average 4M to 



6 inches in circumference. 



Giant, Double, Mixed Colors.

PRIMULA OBCONICA 

 GIGANTEA 



These "Ever-flowering Primroses" 

 are favorite pot plants for 

 house and conservatory. Many 

 of the flowers measure 1 K inches 

 across, equaling in dimensions 

 those of their Chinese rivals, 

 with the added merit of being 

 easier grown and having a 

 longer duration of bloom. 

 Several colors in mixture, white, 

 crimson, rose, violet, lilac, pink- 



eved sorts, etc Pkt., 25c.

PRIMULA MALACOIDES 



This new race of Primroses from the mountains of China 

 has proven most profuse-flowering for pot culture. The 

 plants form rosettes of light green leaves from which numer- 

 ous wiry stems — 8 to 10 inches in height — gracefully carry 

 whorls of flowers H to H of an inch across. They are 

 easily grown from seed and commence flowering in about 

 4 months from sowing and continue to bloom in increasing 



profusion for many weeks. A cool situation indoors or in 

 the conservatory suits them to perfection. 

 P. Malacoides Alba. Pure white flowers.

New Giant early flowering Spencer Sweet Peas 



BLOOM 4 WEEKS EARLIER THAN THE LATE SPENCERS 



The plants of this new race, grown under congenial conditions, are of strong constitution, vigorous growth, profuse and 

 bloom continuously for about four months. Grown in the open ground they begin flowering in about 106 days from seed 

 sowing or fully four weeks sooner than late flowering Sweet Peas sown at the same time, and they continue to flower in 



profusion for fully 4 months. It is predicted by Sweet Pea author- 

 ities that this race will supplant all other early and late flowering Sweet 

 Peas for winter flowering under glass, and also for open ground culture 

 in our Southern States — sown preferably in fall or winter.
