PACIFIC STRAIN OF POLYANTHUS PRIMROSES 
As the Polyanthus group is the most hardy and easiest to grow of all the Primrose family, 
succeeding in practically every climate, we have concentrated our work on improving this 
particular type. Twenty years of intensive breeding have brought a wider and clearer color 
range, taller stems, and larger size of individual flowers and flower heads than we dreamed was 
possible. Approximately 100,000 seedlings are grown annually for selection, one percent of 
which is retained for seed production. In this manner, interbreeding only the very finest of the 
new seedlings and growing a new generation each year, we have been able to develop a strain 
that is above any competition. 
Selected Plants available in the following colors: 
White, Yellow and Gold, Bronze Blends, Flame-Scarlet, Dark Red, Carmine-Rose, Pink and 
Pastel Blends, Light Blues, Dark Blues, Violet Blends. 
Delivery ... February-March with flowers on, September-October without flowers. 
Price ... $4.00 per dozen. $30.00 per 100, F.O.B. Capitola. (No order less than 1 doz. accepted. ) 
SEED 
We produce only a very limited quantity of seed annually by cross-pollinating the very finest 
new seedlings at an extremely high cost. As this is the finest seed obtainable, we recommend it 
to advanced amateurs only or professionals who wish to grow something outstanding. 
Price ... Pink and Pastel Blends, Light and Dark Blues: 
$5.00 for packet of over 350 seeds, $2.50 for half packet.

packet.
