BABY PRIMROSE. 
(With Fringed Flowers). 
Thi* new variety has the same continuou: 
blooming qualities and hardiness the origi 
nal Obconica has, only the flowers an 
twice as large and much handsomerinevery 
way—silvery lavender, and slight blusli 
pink, nearly whita. Pkt. 30seeds, 10c. 
PRIMULA OBCONICA. Soft blush 
pink. Pkt. 50 seeds, 3 c. 
(Primula Forbesi.) 
Last spring this plant became quite 
famous and was much used in very 
elegant and handsome decorations as 
sprays of cut flowers and plants for 
table and mantel. It gives a peculiar 
dainty and handsome effect to bou¬ 
quets and baskets, and is of great 
value in all really artistic decorations. 
Why you should grow the Baby Primrose. 
Plants begin to bloom when only one inch high. 
Plants in 2 inch pots 3 months ago, now in 6 inch, carry more 
than 50 sprays of flowers, and will continue to bloom in greater 
profusion. It’s a perpetual bloomer. 
The flowers remain fresh nearly a month after being cut. 
The stems are long and erect, hence useful for all purposes. 
The rosy-lilac flowers are just the right color for all purposes. 
For Easter blooming nothing could be more desirable. 
The more you cut it the more it blooms. 
It is elegant as a pot plant or for jardinieres.
