The seed of Primula Stellata, “Star Primula” and the Sinensis types 
inay be sown in succession from March to June in a temperature not 
higher than 70^ or lower than 50° until the seed has germinated. 
Immediately the seedlings are large enough to handle, prick them off 
into small pots, placing a number of them around the inside rim of 
each pot, water carefully and shade when necessary. As soon as the 
young plants have developed sufficiently, transplant them, one to a 
in. pot and when the pots become filled with roots shift to larger pots. 
Do not subject Greenhouse Primulas to heat, the cooler they are grown, the 
better. Generally speaking “Carnation temperature" 5CP to 55° is suitable. 
Primula obconica seed may be sown in succession from February to 
July. From the Winter sowing they will commence blooming in the 
Autumn and continue into the Winter months.
