FROM OUR ENGLISH EXCHANGES. 



The Gardeners' Magazine. 



New Lilies. — Though no particularly 

 new lily has been brought prominently 

 forsvard this year, no less than four have 

 received either first-class certificates or 

 awards of merit from the Royal Horti- 

 cultural Society. This is in excess of 

 many previous years, the general rule be- 

 ing one or two. Lilium auratum platy- 

 phyllum Shirley variety, which gained 

 the higher award, is a very fine form of 

 the broad-leaved variety of L. auratum, 

 and in eveiy way a striking lily. The 

 absence of spots on the flowers is pro- 

 nounced. L. Kelloggi, if exhibited as a 

 hybrid between L. pardalinum and L. 

 rubescens, would be regarded as strictly 

 intermediate between its parents. L. ele- 

 gans Peter Barr is one of the finest vari- 

 eties of L. elegans. L. speeiosum mag- 

 nificum is in all probability an importa- 

 tion from Japan, and is certainly in 

 every way a very fine lily. The color is 

 a deep reddish-rose, with lighter tips, 

 while the basal half of the petals is 

 dotted with crimson. 



EosES. — With regard to the varieties 

 of a rambling character that are suitable 

 for the formation of pillars, I would sug- 

 gest that less attention should be paid 

 to Crimson Rambler. . It is a marvelous- 

 ly beautiful rose, but it should not be 

 grown to the exclusion of all other varie- 

 ties of a similar character. Not only is 

 variety desirable, but this old favorite 

 appears to greater advantage when associ- 

 ated with others differing in color than 

 when grown exclusively. I would suggest 

 the following, with Crimson Rambler, as 

 desirable where there is space for a few 

 only: Blush Rambler, Dorothy Perkins, 

 Debutante, Queen Alexandra, Perle des 

 Neiges, Psyche, Sweetheart, Tea Ram- 

 bler, Thalia and Waltham Rambler.
