Summary[edit]

Description

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA
39
NIGELLA, LOVE-IN-A-MIST.
Hardy annual, known as "Devil-in-Bush" and "Lady-in-Green" because the blos-
soms are partially concealed by the abundance of finely cut foliage. The plant and
flower are both handsome and require but little care. Pkt., 150 seeds, 3 cts.
OXALIS.
It is not generally known that these annual varieties of Oxalis are fully equal
for edging to the varieties grown from bulbs. Mixed colors. Pkt., 200 seeds, 4 cts.
ORNAMENTAL GRASSES.
All the annual varieties mixed, many
of them being really handsome in growth,
and all of them desirable for winter
boquets, if cut while green and dried in
the shade. Pkt., 200 seeds, 4 cts.
I was so well pleased with seed 1 got
from you last year that I am sending
to you again this year, as I know then
I am getting good fresh seeds that will
turn out well.
With all good wishes, I am

The Asters. Poppies and Sweet Alys-
sum seed I bought of you last year
were very beautiful all summer.

PRIMULA SINENSIS, CHINESE PRIMROSE.
Many persons seem to think that Primulas are successfully propagated only In
the greenhouse. They are unequaled as winter bloomers, easily grown if the right
conditions are observed, and give a succession of flowers throughout the season.
Single fringed, finest mixed. Pkt., 50 seeds, 8 cts.
PRIMULA, DOUBLE.
Best mixed, all colors. Pkt.
seeds, 10 cts.
PRIMULA OBCONIOA.
Primula Obconica is as near an everblooming plant as it is possible to obtain.
It has been known to flower for over twelve months without a break. Pkt., 100
seeds, 5 cts.
POLYANTHUS, PRIMULA ELATIOR.
Showy, early spring, free flowering plants, fine for either pot or outdoor culture,
hardy perennials; 9 inches. The best single; all colors mixed. Pkt., 200 seeds, 6c.
STAR PRIMULA.
(PBIMUIiA STEIiIiATA HYBRIDA.) Many of the blooms are equal in form and
purity of color to those of the Chinese Primula, and, as they last longer and the
plants can be much more easily grown, they deserve to be widely cultivated. Pkt.,
100 seeds, 6 cts.
THE MEXICAN PRIMROSE.
The superb colors, combined with airy grace and a beautiful form, make a
flower which is almost perfection. The plant seldom grows over ten inches in height,
but inclines to a trailing habit, sweeping its branches out over the ground, or
drooping out over the sides of the pot, holding its large, silky flowers erect. As a
window plant it combines great hardiness and ease of culture with unrivaled beauty
and profusion of bloom. In the open ground it grows freely and profusely; will
thrive well under any and all conditions and bloom the year around in pots, or

during the spring, summer and fall, in the garden. Pkt., 100 seeds, 5 cts.

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.
