(See cut) 3784 3790 3810 3791 3800 PRIMULA (Primrose) The charming and beautiful Chinese Fringed Primroses and obconica varieties are indispensable for winter or spring decorations in the home or conservatory. They are one of the most important winter blooming pot plants. The seed we offer is of the highest merit, and has, as usual, been saved from the best strains of English and Continental growth. Florists and others report that they have never seen finer flowers than those pro- duced from our seed. Sow in March, April or May. The hardy varieties are also deserving of wide cultivation. PRIMULA OBCONICA. These are of the easiest culture in greenhouse or light window of dwelling house, flowering abundantly and continuously with little care, and should be sown during the spring in good porous loam. They will not germinate well in any compost containing peat or leaf mould. To develop the colors to the highest degree grow in heavy soil, and at a temperature as near 60 degrees as possible. The Grandiflora varieties are the freest-flowering, but lack the very large individual blooms of the newer Gigantea type. PER PKT. 3811 Gigante
