Obconica Fimbriata. A fringed variety of the above. The flowers being as finely fringed as the Chi- nese Fringed Primrose, and are very fragrant. (See cut.) 15 Obconica fimbriata carmine. This new variety is the brightest col- ored of this type, being a rich car- mine 20 3823 Forbesi {Baby Primrose). This is the freest flowering Primula we know of. The seed comes up very readily, and the little plants throw up tiny flower stalks when only a few weeks old. These, however, should be pinched off, and the plants kept growing until October, when the flowers may be allowed to develop, and from then on until late in spring they produce their sprays of beautiful rosy lilac flowers in seemingly never-ending profusion 25 3822 Floribunda. Of the same general character as Obconica, differing only in color of the flower, which is a lovely shade of yellow 25 HARDY PRIMROSES. These are among the best of the early spring blooming planls. With a slight protection they will stand the winter, but do better if pro- tected by a cold frame. 3831 Arctotis hybridus. This beautiful new class are of com- pact and sturdy habit, and bloom freely early in spring. The colors range from white through rose and lilac to bright car- mine and purple-red, including also cream, sulphur and golden- yellow 25 3821 CortUSOideS Amoena [Sieboldi). Charming variety ; mixed colors. (See cut.) 3825 Japon
