pot plant. Tr. pkt., 50c. 
PRIMULA MALACOIDES. 12,000 seeds per 442 oz. Easily 
grown, after they get started, but care must be used in germi- 
nating this seed since it will not tolerate fertilizer in the soil at 
this stage. Keep nitrate level below 20 ppm. All our seed is 
soil tested regularly for germination and we know it will grow 
if given a chance; for this reason we cannot accept respon- 
sibility for non-germination of this seed.
