Fruit and Floral Meetings in March.—The usual Meetings were 
held on the day of the show, the results of which will be found in the 
Proceedings of this month. Another Meeting of the Floral Committee 
was held on the 31st of March. 
Ballots for Seeds and Plants.— The successful Balloters for Seeds 
last month will be found recorded at p. 150. =, ; 
A ballot for plants will take place on the 24th of April, in the Council 
m, immediately after the Meeting for the Election of Fellows which 
takes place at 2 o'clock. А portion of these plants have been reared 
from seeds collected in South Brazil by Мг. Weir, and in South 
Africa by Mr. Cooper. Neither of these, therefore, are for the open 
air; but besides them there are a number of miscellaneous plants 
which are hardy. “The Society has been fortunate in having in their 
ballots for the last three years plants from Mingrelia, and various 
parts of Northern Asia, such as the beautiful Picea Nordmanniana, 
seeds of which do not often find their way into the hands of English 
nurserymen. These they owe to the kindness of M. Regel, Professor 
of Botany in St. Petersburgh. То M. Haage, nurseryman, in Erfurt, 
they owe the seeds from which the plants of the new or supposed new 
Grecian Firs have been reared (see p. 141). i ; 
A separate list of the plants to be balloted for accompanies this. 
Fellows will be good enough to mark the numbers they select (accord- 
ing to their privileges, six or three) and return the list. It may seem 
average of undirected letters put into the letter-box, во here eas 
always a certain number (not many, but still a number) of lists returne 
Without any name by which to know from whom they came. 
Donations.—A large number of fine Rhododendrons have been pre- 
sented by Mrs. Hope, of the Deepdene. xd 
The Commissioners from Canada to the Great Exhibition have, 
through Dr. Hurleburt, presented the fine blocks of timber now placed 
in the arcade to the right of the Council Room portico.
