Hardy Primroses 
After 7 years breeding work with Primula polyantha and veris and their 
hybrids, we believe this to be a group of plants which the Florist and Nurseryman 
will find most valuable. The new strains thrive over a wider range of cultural 
conditions and are hardy anywhere in the U. S. Modern strains are less exacting 
as to culture although they do best in a situation which has always proven 
favorable. An eastern exposure protected from noon and afternoon sun and drying 
winds; under light tree shade is ideal. Coolness, some shade, ample moisture, good 
drainage and medium light woodland type of soil gives best results although the 
plants have a good tolerance. They are ideal rockgarden subjects and once estab- 
lished should not be disturbed over a period of 3 or 4 years. They are as hardy 
as Pansies and will winter under about the same conditions. 
Culture is Simple 
Seeds may be sown at almost any time of the year that they can be procured, 
They may be planted from June to Oct. out of doors or in coldframes; or in flats 
indoors from Oct. to late April. or May. New crop seeds usually are ready in 
July or Aug. 
The seedling soil should be light and seeds covered but lightly. A liberal use, 
about 4th. well rotted cow manure is good. We plant by the Purdue method on 
top of 4% inch of sphagnum moss that has been rubbed through a 4 inch screen 
and firmed over top of flat with a block. After firming moss should be about lth. 
inch thick. Plant on top of moss but do not cover. A pane of glass should be kept 
over flat until germination is complete. This method avoids damping off and gives 
maximum germination. Avoid excessive moisture but see that the moss is kept 
damp at all times. If covering the seeds with soil or other media do not apply 
more than Ygth. inch. Keep bed shaded until germination is complete. 
As the seedlings become large enough, about 4 to 6 leaves, prick off into flats 
and keep in a cool, moist and partly shaded situation. As they are large enough 
shift from flats to permanent bed or individual pots. If into pots, plunge to the rim 
in soil to maintain low soil temperature and even moisture. Again protect from 
severe sun until established. When setting into their final bed add humus, leafmold 
and/or well rotted cow manure to the soil as the established plant likes a deep, 
moist, rich loamy soil that is well drained. We do not advise the use of commercial 
chemical fertilizers but cow manure can be used liberally. 
Late Winter and Spring sown plants may be set into their permanent bed in 
Sept., Oct. or later depending on locality and climate. Sowings planted in Summer 
and Fall are best set into outdoor beds early the following Spring. Plants may 
also be propagated by dividing old plants in the Fall. These divisions will bloom 
the following Spring but seedling plants will be a year old when they bloom. 
HARROLD’S Pedigreed GIANTS 
This is a new strain of Polyantha veris hybrids on which we have worked for 
more than six years. The plants are compact and of robust growth while the flowers 
are born well above the foliage on fine long stems. Flowers are large, often as big 
as a silver dollar in clusters from 4 to 8 inches across. Colors are outstandingly 
brilliant and varied — including yellows, reds, and purples of real brilliance as 
well as pinks, blues and bronzes that are rare.

is unsurpassed. As always they are carefully grown and cured and every blub has 
been fumigated under the supervision of the Cregon State Department of Agri- 
culture by the most approved fumigant for thrips. These bulbs are’ clean when
