PASSION FLOWER. 
PRIMROSE, CHINESE. 
5 ilogyne suavis, a beautiful, rapid-growing climber ; 
excellent for screens or verandahs; in fact, for 
the la.ter it has no equal. Fine also for the house 
in winter. This plant, though so slender in appear¬

in a short time. 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 
Few house plants afford better satisfaction than this. 
It requires to be kept cool, a north window suiting it 
best. Care should be taken in watering that no water 
fall on the buds, as it causes them to rot. In the sum¬ 
mer they can be turned out into a shady border. The 
plants should be divided, if wanted for the next winter, 
put into small pots, and keep shaded until well 
rooted ; then, as they grow, re-pot, using a size larger 
pot. This is especially desirable for the double varieties, 
as in this way double flowers are insured, while, if the 
seed is sown, a goodly portion of the plants will bear 
single flowers. The single kinds are usually grown 
by sowing seed in pots or pans in June, pricking 
off when the plants have three rough leaves, and potting 
the young plants as they grow. These plants will be in 
flower by December, continuing all winter, and usually 
until May or June.
