CULTURE 
of 
PRIMROSES 
and 
CINERARIAS 
While both these plants, particularly near the coast, 
will stand considerable sun, they will be happier if 
planted in a cool situation with protection from the 
direct rays of the sun during the heat of the day. The 
soil should be generously provided with humus, such 
as leaf mold and composted manure or peat moss 
and a mulch of the same material should be kept 
around the plants, so the ground never becomes baked 
or hard. The addition of bone meal to the soil before 
planting is recommended and the plants may be fed 
with a balanced plant food during their growing 
season. They like moisture and should not be allowed 
to get absolutely dry.
