The term Polyanthus , or Primula polyantha , refers to various tall-stemmed and multi-coloured strains of P. vulgaris × P. veris hybrids . Though perennial, they may be short-lived and are typically grown from seed or from young plants as biennials . The following have received

He dies at the end of Mockingjay , after Katniss shoots President Coin instead of him at his own public execution, and he laughs maniacally at the irony of said assassination.

In appropriate conditions, P. vulgaris can cover the ground in open woods and shaded hedgerows. It is found mainly by streams, under bushes, in orchards and clear, moist deciduous forests. Occasionally it also appears in meadows. In Central Europe plants thrive best on nutrient-rich, but lime-poor, humus-rich, loose and often stony loam soils in winter-mild situations. In more populated areas it has sometimes suffered from over-collection and theft so that few natural displays of primroses in abundance can now be found. However it

10480-474: The fact that the "star-crossed lovers" storyline with Peeta was staged, as it is presumed her closeness with someone as good looking as Gale would draw suspicion.

The two of them get caught up in a rebel plot which Sejanus is part of, and Coriolanus

14017-437: The rest of us."
