CLIBRANS’ 
Superb Strains of Primula Sinensis Fimbriata. 
There is no more valuable winter and spring flowering decorative plant for the conservatory than a good strain of Primula, and 
considerable care is necessary in order to secure successful germination of the seed, lhe best method is to sow in well-drained shallow 
pans, covering the seeds lightly, in line 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.
