 comprehensive, and includes annuals, perennials, and

 interesting plants, such as new forms of Clarkias, 

 -Astei'S, Nasturtiums, Dimorphothecas, and the new 

 Chinese Primulas. For inside sowing we aie pleased 

 to note an early Howering form of one of ihc most 

 beautiful blue flowers in e.xistence — Iponia'a rubro- 

 ccvsrulea, also the new Hybrid Gerberas. which have 

 attracted attention wherever they have been shown ; 

 the new scarlet Cineraria Matador, and many other 

 good things.

 Oaks, Limes, Sycamores, .\ilanlhus. Hollies, Alder, 

 Beech, and Elms, all packed in specially constructed
