PRIMULA SEED 
This seed is gathered from plants especially selected and 
grown for seed production. 
GIANT FLOWERED ACAULIS. This is the low growing 
“bunch” type and is at least two weeks earlier than the 
Polyanthus. This variety is a great improvement over the 
older forms, both as to size of flower and shades of color. 
Especially suitable for potting. Both buds and blooms are 
invaluable nosegay and corsage material. Growers’ pkt. 
$2.00. Sold out till July, 1946. 
POLYANTHUS 
COLOSSAL STRAIN. The blossoms of these Giants are 
unbelievably large, and the colors are most unusual. 
Under proper cultivation, the individual flowers can meas- 
ure from 1¥%2 to 2 inches. They are heavy textured, and 
are carried in large umbels on sturdy stems. The foliage 
is lush, well marbled, and beautiful in itself. The color 
sequence is wide and varied, with many unusual shades, 
from almost black, dark velvety red, through flame-red, 
tangerine, orange, copper, gold, yellow and cream, to 
white; from apple-blossom pink through clear pink to rose, 
burgundy and violet; apricot, lavender, and many two- 
toned pastels. Mixed colors. Growers’ pkt. $1.00. 
AURICULA. Large flowered strain. Colors include yellow, 
light brown, blue, henna, plum, purple, rose, pastel tones, 
and some brassygreen shades. Mixed only. Growers’ 
pkt. $1.00. 
CANDELABRA 
This type is well suited to planting at the edges of streams 
and pools, or among shrubs. It has successive whorls of 
flowers on tall stems. Since its foliage dies in winter, avoid 
situations where a stagnant water condition exists during 
its dormant period, for this condition is likely to rot the 
crown. 
BULLEYANA. The terra cotta buds are almost as interest- 
ing as are the orange-yellow flowers growing in tiers on 
stems which are often 3 feet high. 
JAPONICA. A sturdy Oriental, ranging in color from 
white, pale pink through soft pink and rose-pink to cerise. 
Especially useful where a sequence of shades is desired. 
JAPONICA ETNA. Has a rank growth, with large flowers 
of bright rose-red. 
PULVERULENTA. Ranks with the choicest of the Can- 
delabras. The farinose stem identifies this species. Colors 
range from very pale pink, through watermelon pink to 
rose pink, some having a distinct rose red eye. Mixed only. 
Any one of the above four—Growers’ pkt. 50c. 
GUARANTY. All seed is guaranteed true to description, but is not guaranteed for the result of the growing, over which 
we have no control. Liability under this guarantee is limited to the price of the seed or stock purchased.
