PRIMULA — Chinese Primrose 
Sow from March to June for succession. Seeds are slow in 
germinating. When sowing press the seeds well into the soil, 
as they are apt to rise to the siu-face. especially if carelessly 
watered. Prick off thinly into boxes, and allow them to remain 
until of good size. Keep well exposed to the Ught to promote 
a sturdy growth. From first to last avoid using a close or heavy 
soil; or shifting them until the pots are. well filled with roots. 
Overpottlng and over-watering are the main causes of failure 
with this class of plant.
