“IMPROVED ERIKSSONI” 
After years of painstaking effort, Mr. Ernst Eriksson, the well-known 
pot plant grower of Riverside, Illinois, has developed a strain that is 
truly ‘perfection’ in this family. We cannot over-emphasize the im- 
portance of using only greenhouse-produced new-crop seed, in 
ERIKSSON'S ORIGINAL PACKETS, with Mr. Eriksson's cultural directions. 
*Indicates generally preferred varieties. 
ERIKSSON'S OUTSTANDING VARIETIES 
*Eriksson’s New Red (1942 Introduction). A very unusual salmon-red— 
particularly suitable for Valentine combinations. Highly recommended, 
*Glory of Riverside Improved. True rose-pink, a strong grower and 
without a doubt, the most valuable variety for all purposes. A real 
pot plant, especially for 6 or 7 inch pot production, here we suggest 
placing three plants to the pot. 
*Riverside Red Rose (New). A brilliant red rose of very even color. 
A valuable introduction. 
*Eriksson’s New Giant. Color resembles closely Glory of Riverside. 
Very robust habit, with flower size approximately 1% inches. It is a 
late bloomer, thereby assuring the florist-grower a longer Primula 
season. 
Eriksson’s White Giant (New). An exceptionally strong grower and 
well adapted to combinations in place of Hyacinths. Color a real 
pure white. 
Lilac Beauty. The color is a pure soft lilac, absolutely fixed. This is 
another fine color for making up artistic combinations. 
Peach Blossom. Color a real deep peach blossom pink. It has a 
more compact habit than “Appleblossom,” and it is also an excellent 
keeper.

unusual combinaticn.
