WAYSIDE GARDENS 
W 
PRIMULA OBCONICA 
Our greatly improved forms of Primula obconica make a very 
pleasing contrast to the Sinensis varieties; they are quite as easily 
grown and have the advantage of a longer flowering period. From 
a sowing in the early months of the year fine plants may be had in 
full bloom in the early autumn which will continue to flower through' 
out the winter. The large sprays are invaluable for cutting. Illus' 
trated. 
13411. Sutton’s Salmon Queen. A very pretty variety, for which 
we gained an Award of Merit at the R. H. S. Chelsea Show. The 
flowers are quite distinct in color, being of that delicate shade of 
salmon-pink often called shell-pink. The plant is extremely free 
flowering. Per pkt., 84c. 
13417. Sutton’s Giant Delicate Pink. A lovely flesh-pink variety of 
Primula obconica, and a color that goes well with the pale blue 
and darker shades. Flowers of great size. Per pkt., 49c. 
1 3423. Sutton’s Blue. A distinct advance in color; the large clear 
flowers tone well with those of the pink varieties. Per pkt., 49c. 
13425. Sutton’s Giant White. The immense pure white flowers en¬ 
hance the beauty of the crimson, pink, and pale blue. 
Per pkt., 49c. 
PRIMROSE 
(Primula vulgaris). French—Primevere a grandes. 
13271. Sutton’s Perfection Mixed. A splendid strain of Primrose 
saved from the finest flowers of the brightest shades only. 
Per pkt., 32c. 
13274. Blue-Flowered. A valuable and attractive Primrose. After 
the second year the flowers become purplish, and therefore seed¬ 
lings should be raised every alternate year to ensure the rich pure 
blue color. Seed very scarce. Per pkt., 84c. 
ANNUAL POPPIES 
A great wealth of color can be obtained throughout the summer 
by liberal sowings of the Annual Poppies. During March, April, and 
May sow in lines or groups, and thin to about a foot apart. The seeds 
should be sown where the plants are intended to flower, because it is 
difficult to transplant with any measure of success.

of salmon, apricot, peach, etc., the strong colors and rose-pinks 
having been eliminated. Per pkt., 32c.

golden anthers, resembling in size and shape the Iceland Poppy.

PORTULACA 
Sow seed in shallow drills on a warm border at the end of April 
and during May; keep the surface moist. If too thick the plants may 
be thinned, and very soon one of the loveliest of floral carpets will 
appear.
