ENGLISH GROWN—GREENHOUSE SAVED SEED 
Grown for us by specialists. 
Not recommended to the amateur grower unless in 
possession of greenhouse, conservatory or similar 
facilities. Successive sowings should be made from 
March to June, in shallow seed pans, in a compost 
consisting of two parts leafmold, one part loam, and 
one part sand. Cover the seed lightly and place in a 
temperature ranging from 50 to 60 degrees. Keep 
the seed almost dark. As soon as the seedlings ap¬ 
pear, prick them off into boxes or pans in a compost 
similar to above. When the plants are large enough 
put into 3 in. pots, adding a little more loam to the 
compost; shift into larger pots later. All Primulas 
prefer a cool temperature.
