OUR HYBRID PRIMROSES, OR FANCY POLYANTHUS. 
LORD BEACONSPIELD VARIETIES. 
jnilERE is no greater charm to the eye all through the spring than these. Although they are 
Primroses, they are totally different to what we are accustomed to see, being stronger growers, 
and their blossoms of an immense size and of great variety of colours. Many are of a lovely deep 
purple-coloured violet, and others approach a distinct shade of red, whilst the yellows and whites 
are most striking. Equally as good in their various colours as Harbinger, introduced by the 
Marquis of Exeter, and which has given such great satisfaction. Large flowering plants, 3.s. to 4.«.

MUCH THE BEST PRIMROSE IN CULTIVATION. 
HARBINGER— Although numbers of i’rimroses have been sent out, and justly admired, they 
can bear no comparison with this one. Uarbinger leaves all white ones far in the rear ; in fact, it is 
one of those marches past that seldom occurs — consequently, one of the good permanent plants, 
welcomed by all with delight and pleasure every year as the hopeful spring comes round.
