CACTUS CINERARIAS. 



Although the flowers of the several 

 species of cactus knoirn to cultivators 

 have not revolute and twisted petals, 

 they are for the most part less formal 

 than the flowers of the plants on which 

 past generations of florists lavished 

 so freely their love and care. Hence the 

 term ' ' cactus ' ' has in the case of flor- 

 ists ' flowers come to be regarded as syn- 

 onymous with lightness and elegance. 

 The first of the flowers to which the 

 term was applied was the dahlia, and 

 this as first used in connection with 

 Dahlia Juarezi was more truly descrip- 

 tive of that brilliantly colored form than 

 it is of its more recent descendants. 

 That, however, is a small matter; the 

 designation is prefectly well understood 

 by all who take an interest in the flowers, 

 and it is perhaps as well suited as any 

 name that could have been selected for 

 popular use. 



We have now "cactus" cinerarias, 

 and, judging from the rapidity with 

 which they have been developed and the 

 attention the varieties have received from 

 flower lovers generally, it is reasonable 

 to infer that they wiU enjoy a large 

 measure of popularity. Let us hope that 

 this will be so, for while we have no 

 ■nish that the varieties of the old type, 

 ■nith their large circular flowers and 

 broad over-lapping florets should be su- 

 perseded, it is most desirable that there 

 should be a considerable degree of diver- 

 sity in these as in other flowers under 

 the gardener 's care. Differences In color 

 and form of the flowers and in the style 

 of growth in the several classes of plants 

 are important factors in the maintenance 

 of interest in them, a fact which the past 

 generations of florists unfortunately 

 failed to recognize. — Exchange.
