Primnla Veris Snperba. 



( New Giant Hardy Primrose. ) 



We introduced this Giant English Primrose four years ago 

 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 two 

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

 fectly hardy, grows from 10 to 12 inches 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.
