Our Colossal Polyanthus 
ASIATIC PRIMULAS 
DENTICULATA CASHMERIANA. An old favorite, orig- 
inally brought from the Himalayas. Beautiful lavender, 
heliotrope-blue and white florets, close set, on stout stems. 
The flowers develop ahead of the grey-green serrated fo- 
liage. Mossy, grey rocks make a harmonious background 
for this vigorous primula. Mixed colors only. 
PRIMULA CAPITATA MOOREANA. Like Denticulata, a 
native of India. The fragrant heliotrope-blue flowers of this 
primula blossom in late Summer. The under surface of the 
bright green, dentate foliage, as well as the stem, is cov- 
ered with a white meal. The flowers are bell shaped and 
are set loosely. It requires ample shade and waiter. In our 
locality it has bloomed from late Spring thru Summer into 
late Fall. 
PRIMULA FLORINDAE. A moisture loving giant from Tibet, 
carrying enormous trusses of fragrant yellow blossoms on 
3-foot stalks. Blooms during mid-summer. The heart 
shaped, cordate foilage is most distinctive and effective 
garden material. Sold out till Summer ‘45. 
Any one of the three Asiatics listed above, pkt. 50c. 
PRIMULA SIEBOLDII. Handsome and delicate appearing, 
but very hardy, being a native of Central Siberia, as well 
as Japan. The lovely, soft, crumply foliage, and the fine 
fringed flowers on 10 to 15-inch stems, make beautiful 
flower arrangements. Flourishes in cool, rich, light soil, 
light enough to permit its creeping habit. A winter mulch 
that can be removed in spring, will help to keep the ground 
mellow, and will make unnecessary the early cultivation, 
which might destroy some of the new growth before it 
shows above the ground. Our seed is selected from pure 
white, shell pink, orchid, deep rose, and the bluish lav- 
ender varieties—Dora and Southern Cross. Mixed colors 
only, pkt $1.00. 
JULIAE HYBRIDS 
The original of this charming primrose came from the 
Caucasus Mountains some 40 years ago. It is very hardy 
and multiplies rapidly. If planted in partial shade and 
given plenty of water, it will blossom from spring through 
the summer and fall. Fine for rock garden and border. Try 
the claret or burgundy-red shades near orange-copper for 
accent. 
The many named hybrids, which have been added to the 
Juliae family, have so enlarged its color range, that it now 
contains the pure white of SCHNEEKISSEN, ALBA and 
SNOW BUNTY; the creamy yellow of DOROTHY; the 
pink and rose shades of MRS. McGILLIVRAY, ROSEA, 
SPRINGTIME, CRISPI, E. R. JAYNES, and KINLOUGH 
BEAUTY; the blue of BUNTY; the bluish or violet tones of 
HELENAE, PAM, PRIMROSE LODGE, WEE-GEM, and 
many unnamed hybrids. Mixed colors only, pkt. $1.00. 
(Sold out till July 15, 1945.) 
Complete cultural directions are enclosed with each seed 
order. 
PLEASE NOTE. We regret that shortage of both labor and 
shipping supplies, have obliged us to limit our plant offer- 
ings for the season of 1945, to young plants of Polyanthus 
Primrose, Pansy and Delphinium. These plants will be 
grown from selected seed, with especial attention to the 
development of a strong, vigorous root system, so that 
they will be sure to thrive after being dug and trans- 
planted. We believe that these lusty young plants, set 
out in the Fall, will produce fine blooms the following 
Spring, and will prove to be most satisfactory garden 
material.
