DIVISIONS OF BREEDING STOCK 
In Primrose-time every morning is begun with the exciting task 
of examining all newly blown blossoms for plants measuring up to 
required qualifications for hybridizing and seed bearing. These, of 
course, must be outstanding in form, richness or newness of color, 
heavy crepe or velvet textures, or size—usually all four distinctions. 
Developing and maturing of seed is accomplished by early July, 
leaving the parent plants free for distribution by July 15th. Large, 
strong divisions of Polyanthus and Acaulis in separate or mixed 
colors are offered for delivery between July 15th and October Ist, 
and, with the exception of the Blues, are all 50c each, 3/$1.35, $5 per 
dozen, plus postage.

PSDEEDLINGS 
By July 1st the seedlings have developed vigorous, bushy root 
systems and can be set out in permanent positions for strong bloom 
the following spring. Seedlings are offered in separate colors, assort- 
ments made to order from the separate colors, or a general mixture. 
It is impossible to guarantee all seedlings absolutely true to color 
due to stray seeds occasionally creeping in and to color habits of 
unknown ancestors putting in an appearance now and then, but the 
majority will come true to name. Ready for delivery between July 
1st and October 1st Polyanthus and Acaulis seedlings, with the ex- 
ception of Blues, are $1 per dozen, plus postage.
