P. IOESSA $1.50 
While this lovely new member of the Sikkimensis group is possibly 
the most difficult of this section to grow, it is not as difficult as many 
other Primroses. This pink to violet beauty demands some shade and 
moisture, and deserves a place in any garden. 
P. IOESSA SUBSP. SUBPINNATIFIDA _ $1.50 
Horticulturally this plant differs from the type specie in that it has 
creamy white blossoms; it is another excellent plant. 
P. INVOLUCRATA $!.00 
Near the top of our list of favorite Primroses is this very fragrant 
white flowered spring beauty. Easy to cultivate, it likes plenty of 
moisture and some shade. Spreading quickly to form large clumps 
that send up many umbels of bloom, it lasts and lasts in the garden 
and is excellent as a cut flower. 
P. INAYATTII $2.00 
This rare and beautiful Tibetian plant with blue to purple blossoms 
blooms in March and April. Though perfectly hardy, it needs a little 
protection from wind and rain. 
P. JAPONICA SEED ONLY 1953 
This large red flowered Candelabra is by far one of the most 
spectacular Primroses. A tetraploid, it has extremely large blossoms, 
and a tight series of umbels which give it a very pyramidal head of 
flowers. Easy to cultivate, it succeeds under any garden conditions, 
but prefers some shade and moisture. 
P. JULIAE HYBRIDS 
Crowd as many of these wonderful plants into your garden as possible! 
They all spread to make large low growing mats which are simply 
covered with bloom a large part of the year. All prefer lots of moisture 
and a little shade. They are divided into two classes—the stalked 
forms, resembling a miniature Polyanthus, and the cushion forms, re- 
sembling a small Acaulis. This year we can supply the following varieties: 
DOROTHY—$1.00 each—Sunlight yellow, stalked form. 
HELENAE—$1.50 each—Bright red, very tiny cushion form, similar 
to P. Juliae. 
KINLOUGH BEAUTY—$1.00 each—Rose pink, stalked form.
