Primula polyantha, Hort. Fig. 3188. A garden group supposed to be hybrids of P. veris or P. elatior and P. acaulis, although some botanists refer it to P.elatior direct, and some consider it to be a direct development of P. acaulis, with elongated scapes. Whatever its origin, the group is distinct for garden purposes, and it is the commonest form of hardy primula known in American gardens. The fls. are several to many in an erect umbel that usually stands well above the long lvs.; the colors are mostly yellow and red-and-yellow, running into orange, bronze, and maroon, and sometimes pure white. Gn.M. 2:59. There is a form with one corolla inside the other, known as duplex or hose-in- hose. The polyanthus is perfectly hardy, blooming in arliest spring. Prop, easily by seeds sown as soon as fully ripe; also by division. P. variabilis, as used in horticultural literature, usually refers to this Polyanthus group or to plants of similar origin. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
