CLIBRANS’ SUPERB STRAINS OF 
PRIMULA SINENSIS FIMBRIATA. 
There is no more valuable Winter and Spring flowering decorative plant for tlie conservatory than a good strain of Primula, and 
considerable care is necessary in order to secure successful germination of the seed. The best method is to sow in well-drained shallow pans, 
covering the seeds lightly, in fine soil, consisting of leaf mould and sandy loam, which should always be kept as near the same degree of 
moisture as possible, and never allowing it to get too dry. The varieties we offer have been saved with the greatest care from the 
largest fringed flowers of the finest substance, and most distinct colours. Numerous testimonials are frequently received from patrons who 
grow our superb strains of Primulas.
