“Flower Seeds 
Primdlar 
(Primroses) 
PRIMULA MALACOIDES 
(12,000 seeds per 142 oz.) 
Sowings of this popular pot plant Primula may be made from May 
through September for blooming plants from January until April. 
Malacoides Primulas are of easy culture if they are grown in an 
airy, cool house (45° night temperature) and not allowed to get 
dry between waterings. Equally important is the avoidance of 
fertilized soil in the seed flat or early stages of growth. 
Because of past germination difficulties with seed from other 
sources, we supply hand pollinated seed of our own growing only, 
except for the Double Mixture. 
@No. 32 Glory of Riverside Imp. One of the finest and most 
popular varieties with freely produced, beautiful salmon-rose

riety available. Large flowers and heavy stems.

red on compact plants of medium height. The brightest color
