PRIMULA—Juliana Primrose 
PRIMULA *Juliae Hybrids—A group known in gardens collec- 
tively as Juliana Primroses. They prefer a moist loam, with 
shade during the hot Summer months. They form spread- 
ing mats, by creeping rhizomes, thickly clothed with pretty, 
glossy leaves and a profusion of starry Primrose flowers on 
2 to 8 inch stems. These dwarf varieties should be grown 
in a moderately rich soil. When overfed, they become gross 
and lose their distinctive and charming qualities. It is wise 
to lift and divided the clumps every third season, replanting 
them in freshly prepared soil. The Juliana Primroses bloom 
from late Winter to mid-Spring, depending on the climate 
and season. They have proved very hardy and easy even 
in sections where other Primroses are unsuccessful. Plant 
in masses for the greatest effect spacing the plants about 
5 to 7 inches apart. 
Chief Multnomah—A very robust growing variety, bronzy 
foliage and large flowers of reddish-purple on 4 to 6 inch 
stems. 75c and $1.00. 
Crimson Glow—Seedling of Chief Multhomah, Primrose 
Lodge probably being the other parent. Has large foliage 
and husky habit of Chief Multnomah and polyantha form 
and color of Primrose Lodge. 60c and 85c. 
Dorothy—A polyantha type with charming cream flowers.

®> described as orange rose or shrimp pink. In any case, we

stems. This is a polyantha type with double sets of flowers, 
one inside the other. Doubling of this sort is rare in Juliae

oped. The most compact of all and lovely. From the Cau- 
casus. 60c and 85c.
