,^ XJ^'DEE this head Ave shall endeavour to 

 = present to our readers from time to time 

 ' selections of the best plants, flowers, seeds, 

 -^ etc., etc., adapting the selections to the 

 r^^^r^- seasons, and, as far as possible, to 

 ~^ the presumed requirements of our 

 amateur readers. We are not intro- 

 ducing a new feature, for from the first 

 issue of the Floeal Woeld, we have constantly 

 to recommend good things to notice, and warn 

 our readers against bad things ; but the business of selection 

 is now to be pursued more systematically than hitherto. As a 

 rule, descriptions will not be attempted, and the names must be 

 accepted as suflicient.
