yellow throat. Awarded “special merit’’ rating in the New York

fringed, double rowed, single flowers 114 inches in diameter. Dark 
green foliage. The color is a strong carmine rose with a strong yellow 
center. Trade pkt., $1.50.

of Primula Obconica, producing flowers of truly immense size; it is 
by far the largest flowered variety in existence. The general growth 
of the plant is of exceptional vigor and robustness; the foliage of 
fine growth and texture. The huge heads of bright crimson 
flowers are carried on strong stems well above the foliage. In spite 
of the vigorous growth, Wayston Wonder makes a compact 
and tidy plant. Trade pkt., $1.00; 14 0z., $4.00; 46 oz., $12.00.

give a much heavier crop of flowers than the standard early flower- 
ing type and are highly heat resistant. Seed of the spring-flowering 
type should be sown from the middle or end of Oct. to Feb. in the 
greenhouse for flowering in spring and summer.
