HARDY PRIMROSES New ane om 
Four Winds takes pride in its outstanding hardy 
Primrose collection. We have built it up to the point 
where it is one of the finest in the country. Contrary to 
general belief, the Primulas are not difficult to grow; 
rich soil, plenty of moisture, and some shade during the 
hot summer months is all they require. Divide every 
three years, adding leaf mold or well-rotted manure to 
the soil. Several kinds may be potted up in the fall and 
brought into the house for winter bloom. Come in and 
pick them out in bloom in May and June.
