GIANT HARDY PRIMROSE 
Primula veris superba 
This beautiful new Primula originated 
in a bed of seedling Polyanthus, and is 
undoubtedly a hybrid Primrose, hav¬ 
ing somewhat the habit of a Polyan¬ 
thus and the pale yellow color and the 
fragrance of the English Primrose. It 
differs from the ordinary forms of Poly¬ 
anthus in throwing up several trusses 
from the same root, and the corolla being 
flatter. The trusses of bloom are six 
inches in diameter, and the individual 
flowers over an inch across, being very 
much larger than those of other hardy 
Primroses. The plant is ten or twelve 
inches in height, is perfectly hardy, and 
flowers earlier and continues in bloom 
longer than any other Primula. Each 20 
cents ; $2.00 per dozen.

A fine hardy plant, growing about 
two feet high, with long, dense, re¬ 
curved spikes of pure white flowers.
