Caladium SchaeUeri :— from Mr. W. Bull. This was also a 

 young undeveloped plant. The leaves were cordate ovate, with a 

 white rib down the centre of the green surface, and having the 

 lateral veins also slightly marked out with white. 



Dracaena Ehrenbergii :— from Mr. W. Bull. A Mexican 

 species with plain green foliage. 



Cyanophyllum speciosum :— from Mr. W. Bull. A distinct 

 and bold-habited plant, with the leaves of a lightish green, stained 

 with purplish-red behind. Though in itself a plant of ornamental 

 character, it was very much inferior to G. magnificum both as io 

 the size and colouring of its foliage. It is a native of Chiapa, 



Rhopala crenata:— from Mr. W. Bull. An elegant con- 

 servatory shrub, with pinnate leaves, having large shining serrated 

 leaflets. It was considered to be inferior as an ornamental plant 

 to jR. maynificwni. 



Beg'onia keramis: — from Mr. W. Bull. A distinct-looking 

 plant, distributed by Mr. Linden. It has leaves of moderate size, 

 angulately lobed, the surface of a dull silvery gray, green at the 

 centre, and with green veins running out towards the margin. 



Calceolaria Sparkler : — from Mr. W. Bull. A shrubby 

 bedding variety with bronzy-red flowers having the upper lip 

 yellow. It was not considered equal to that called Goldcap. 



Petunias :— from Mr. W. Bull. A collection consisting for 

 the most part of double-flowered sorts, among which Madame 

 Eendatler and Madame Lanzezeur, two dark-purple mottled 

 varieties, resembling inimitahilisfl. i^leno, were the best. Another 

 called inimitabilis superba was of the same character, but with 

 a ground colour of pale purple or mauve. Jean Faber had very 

 large rose-purple compact flowers; and Jean d'Arc had large 

 blush flowers slightly veined. The two latter were very strong- 

 growing and rather coarse-looking sorts. 



Pelargoniums {zonale) :—fTom Mr. W. Bull. Rosy Gem, 

 with large pale cerise flowers, the leaves scarcely zonate . Diadem, 

 with the leaves heavily and distinctly zoned with a band of a dark 

 reddish brown, and a pale green centre ; the flowers scarlet. 

 Tintoret, with definite zone, and fairly shaped cerise pink flowers. 

 Marie Tlii€ry, with darkly zonate leaves, and salmon-coloured 

 flowers. —From Messrs. Wood & Ingram, Huntingdon. Hon. Mrs.
