The most important member of this family to the 

 florist is the Fringed Chinese Primrose, our supply 

 of which we procure from a leading English spe- 

 cialist, and sure to give the same satisfaction in 

 the future as it has in the past. The Obconica 

 varieties are also very popular, making beautiful 

 pot plants for winter blooming.
