Passiflora Coerulea Grandiflora 
"Passionflower" 
PASSIFLORA COERULEA 
GRANDIFLORA 
The large and numerous flowers of Passiflora 
coerulea grandiflora give an especially evident 
representation of the "Implements of the Cruci¬ 
fixion," making it thus a very interesting plant. 
Among all "Passionflowers" this climber is the 
most frost-resisting species, so that it may resist 
also in the northern countries in protected places 
on south walls, if covered in winter. Not only 
for its particularly large flowers, but also for its 
beautiful foliage, this Passiflora is recommended 
as one of the most interesting climbing plants.

PRIMULA SINENSIS 
(Double-Dazzler) 
The world-wide popularity of our novelty of three 
years ago, the single form of Primula Dazzler, has 
caused a demand far above our most sanguine 
expectations. It is probable that no novelty of 
recent years has been listed so freely by seeds¬ 
men at home and abroad. Growers of decorative 
plants for market have given unstinted praise 
to the value of Dazzler as a pot plant. It is, 
therefore, with more than usual pleasure that 
we announce the advent of a double form, which 
comes perfectly true from seed. Double Dazzler 
makes an even better market plant than our 
original introduction, for the flowers lift them¬ 
selves more above the foliage and are produced 
in even greater profusion. As can well be imag¬ 
ined, the duplication of the petals adds consider¬ 
ably to the beauty of the plant and emphasizes 
the vivid orange-scarlet coloring of the flowers.

A double flowering Primula Obconica

specialists and we are glad to say 
that such has now been accom¬ 
plished by an American grower, 
Ernst Eriksson of Riverside, Ill., and 
J. Sylvester of Oconto, Wis., both 
high class pot-plant growers, tell 
us that this new Primula has a great 
future. Shades of dark pink, laven¬ 
der pink, and rose pink mixed. Since 
same seeds sparcely and the sup- New

have first call.

PRIMULA CHINENSIS (Single-Flowered "Dazzler") 
A Startling New Chinese Variety from Hurst & Son, seed merchants and growers of London, Eng¬ 
land, comes a "really startling novelty in flower seeds." It is a Chinese Primrose (Primula Sinensis 
Fimbriata) which the firm has named Dazzler in recognition of its striking and unusual color; 
"orange red," as seen in the setting sun, is suggested as the only term that accurately describes 
it. It is claimed that a well-grown specimen will carry well over 20 flowers open at one time; 
also that while handsome under all circumstances, the blossoms are especially effective under 
artificial light. Tr. Pkt.75c 1/32 oz.$2.00
