Messrs. Blackniore & Langdon liave made a 

 great success of raising new and improved 

 varieties of Delphinium, Gloxinia. Cvclamen, 

 Polyanthus, &c., and their strains of these are 

 recognised as among the finest on the market

 Messrs. Ed. Webb & Sons, of Wordsley, Stoui- 

 bridge, have a very fine selection of vegetable and 

 flower seeds in their new catalogue issued some 

 weeks ago. The firm has a reputation for many 

 fine strains in both sections, and the new list, 

 which is profusely illustrated, shows that the pre- 

 war standard has been well maintained. There is 

 an ample field for selection in the large number 

 (jf varieties offered, and many strains now well 

 known in gardens are met with' through the pages. 

 The large number of awards wliich have gone to 

 the produce of Webb's seeds, together with 

 the numerous testimonials from satisfied cus- 

 tomers all over the country, testify to the popu- 

 larity and excellence of the firm's goods.
