Primula Sieboldi (GOPtUSOidBS). 
JAPANESE PRIMULAS. 
A pretty class of Primulas producing large heads of charmingly fringed flowers ranging from 
white, crimson, mauve, to lavender-blue ; splendid for shady border or rock garden. They like 
a light soil with a mixture of leaf soil and decayed manure. As pot plants for a cool house they 
are very suitable. The flowers under glass have a delicacy of tint and beauty seldom seen out of 
doors.
