Primula Malacoides
This new race of Primroses from the
mountains of China has proven most pro-
fuse-flowering for pot culture. The plants
form rosettes of light green leaves from
which numerous wiry stems — 8 to 10 inches
in height — gracefully carry whorls of flowers
M to M of an inch across. They are easily
grown from seed and commence flowering
in about 4 months from sowing and con-
tinue to bloom in increasing profusion for
many weeks. A cool situation indoors or
in the conservatory suits them to perfection.

"The Primula Malacoides seed that I pur-
chased from you last spring turned out most
beautifully and my plants this winter are
simply magnificent."
Mrs. M. H. TEBBS, Leesburg, Va.
Primula Obconica Gigantea
These "Ever-flowering Primroses" are
favorite pot plants for house and conserva-
tory. The Chinese Primroses will have_to
look to their laurels for this new giant
Obconica race is looming up in size of
flowers, many of them measuring \Yi inches
across, equalling in dimensions those of
their Chinese rivals, with the added merit
of being easier grown and having a longer
duration of bloom. Several colors in
mixture, white, crimson, rose, violet, lilac,
pink-eyed sorts, etc Pkt. 25c,
"My Primroses are the admiration of every
one who sees them and some of my friends will
send to you for the seed."
Mrs. D. C. CLARK, Puyallup, Wash.
Giant Star Primroses
(Primula Stellata Hybrida Gigantea)
This distinct and beautiful type should
be better known, for it is an unrivaled
winter and spring flowering pot plant and
for table decoration unique and effective.
The attractive dark foliage on purple sterna
makes a striking contrast to the innumer-
able star-shaped flowers borne in graceful
pyramidal clusters. The flowers of this
new type are much larger than the old type
Stellatas and of greater substance.

PORTULACA
Giant Fringed Chinese Primroses
(Primula Sinensis Grandiflora Fimbriata)
Chinese Primroses are among our finest winter and spring bloom-
ing pot plants; of healthy, sturdy growth, 8 to 12 inches high, and
free from insects; while they produce for weeks large trusses of
flowers, which, in our new Giant varieties, average from 4J4 to 6 inches
in circumference. (See cut.)

ously all winter and are still in bloom."

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
