nature of the leaves, they are apt to damp if it be not carefully 

 done. 



The varieties which we now figure were sent to us by 

 Messrs. Backhouse and Son, of York, and are of French origin. 

 We regret that owing to circumstances over which we had no 

 control, we are unable to do as we proposed, give a plate of six 

 of the varieties, and can therefore only say that the others are 

 all in the same remarkably distinct style.
