PRIMROSES 
(SUPPLEMENT TO PREVIOUS LIST) 
Here are a few varieties that are new and some that 
were omitted from the °48 list because of stock shortage. 
We also take this opportunity to call attention to a group 
of plant material suitable for “dooryard” planting for 
bloom in early February. 
DANTE in F Each $1.50 
Not new, but still the best “almost black” poly- 
anthus. Centered with a perfect star of rich 
orange and one of the largest in plant and bloom. 
Filtered sunlight, as under an apple tree, helps 
bring out the tones of its velvet beauty. 
FLAMBO é ‘ Each 50c 
A fine plant with noticably ded leaf umbel 
of ruffled florets. Red, of slightly deeper shude 
than flame. 
GENTLEMEN’S PREFERENCE . ; Each 50e¢ 
. 3 for $1.00 
A group of red polyanthus that we have propa- 
gated from seedlings grown in ’89 from the best 
English seed. Onlv the most outstanding plants 
were retained, and all score high on general ap- 
pearance, stem, bloom cluster, size and color. 
MARIE CROUSSE ‘ : : Each $1.00 
Acaulis fl. pl. — very double and described as 
“light burgundy” in color. We find that with 
full sun and well fed it apvroaches the shade 
known as “American Beauty.” 
“INCOGNITA”—JULIAEK HYBRID . Fach $1.00 
This English importation is perhaps an am- 
nesia victim, since her name is not available; 
hut so beautiful a plant, with such a wealth of 
exquisite true pink blooms that it will get along 
without a name. 
“THE BLUE OF EVENING” : ; Each 50e 
New polyanthus with long stem and good bloom 
cluster of misty blue; rather late bloomer. 
VALENTINE . é : Each $1.00 
So called because it ‘always blooms in early 
February unless actually buried under snow. 
The large flowers are brighest clear rose, nu- 
merous in quantity, and continue through the 
season. 
VIKING ; R Each 50c 
We are glad to offer again this handsome poly- 
anthus. It is a well balanced late bloomer, in 
color rich rose bronze. Large and full and an 
unusually durable flower.
