these are not displayed in cut blooms 

 on tables, but as pot plants arranged 

 with considerable skill for effect and 

 in beds of great extent, as will be seen 

 in the right hand corner of our pic- 

 ture. Three beds arranged on the 

 ground floor werc' set up in masses 

 each color by itself, by M. E. Poirier. 

 The trusses were all of large size, but 

 the individual pips were hardly equal 

 to some of our English growers' stan- 

 dard. The same exhibitor also staged 

 a number of standard zonals, mostly 

 varieties not known on our side- of the 

 channel. M. Andre Charmet exhibited 

 a pink semi-double called Dagata. A 

 very dwarf double pink Zonal called 

 Ville de Gardes was staged in large 

 numbers by M. Paul Feron. M. Baril- 

 let showed fancy pelargoniums in va- 

 riety. 



A few paces further on bring us to 

 the hollow square, where are displayed 

 the begonias and gloxinias. On the 

 left hand is M. A. Billad, who staged 

 a very effective lot of tuberous bego- 

 uas. M. E. Cappe had a lovely little 

 bed of foliage begonias with maiden 

 hair ferns intermingled in the most 

 artistic style. Messrs. Vallerand staged 

 gloxinias edged with begonias in great 

 variety. In M. Lebaudy's display of 

 Lorraines huge pots were raised at in- 

 tervals over smaller pots equally well 

 flowered, which exhibit is very plainly 

 visible in the middle of the square in 

 our picture. 



To the right and lelt are two rooms 

 specially devoted to orchid exhibits, 

 the productions of such well-known 

 growers as M. C. Beranek, M. R. Le- 

 baudy, M. A. Regnier, Messrs. Ch. 

 .Maron et fils, M. Le Sueur. Hydran- 

 geas were in several cases prominent 

 features. M. Desire Kamelet set up a 

 large number of Thomas Hogg in front 

 of a background of Japanese maples — 

 a tastefully arranged display. 



Cannas. azaleas, Iris Kaempferi, car- 

 nations, etc.. were shown here in great 

 variety, also the dinner table decora- 

 tions and other floral compositions 

 from the famous house of Lachaume. 



In the corridor connecting this with 

 the second house rhododendrons and 

 azaleas fill up two large squares, and 

 are a sight not easily forgotten. Well 

 grown plants of both covered with 

 bloom are staged by Messrs. Croux et 

 fils. There was also a very large show 

 of these handsome plants by Messrs. 

 Moser & Son. Messrs. Vilmorin, An-- 

 drieux & Co. had a charmingly ar- 

 ranged water garden and rockery, an 

 attraction of uncommon interest for

the visitors. They also set up numer- 

 ous large beds of hardy flowers in the 

 space adjoining, the varieties being so 

 numerous that any attempt at enu- 

 meration is an impossibility. 



We arc now in the second large 

 greenhouse, and behold a sight equally 

 as brilliant as that in the first. M. 

 Perard staged a large number of hardy 

 flowers on beds. M. Brochet showed 

 clematis, azaleas, syringas and peo- 

 nies. Messrs. .\ngel showed tulips and 

 anemones. M. Falaisi. pansies. A 

 pretty lot of Primula obconica camo 

 from M. Tober .Maxime. Oayeux et

 villeas. kalanchoes, etc. A new double 

 anthemis called l^erfection came from 

 M. Aubert Mailie and was largely 

 show n. M. Dessert had peonies in over 

 100 varieties, and many other exhibi- 

 tors figured to advantage. A hand- 

 some exhibit of roses and carnations 

 was set up on a rectangular grass lawn 

 by M. Geo. Truffaut. grown by the aid 

 of his famous Biogine chemical man- 

 ure. Ornamental foliage plants formed
