 The show of greenhouse and other rare plants were very numerous and 

 especially fine ; there were many specimens exhibiting very considerable 

 skill in their culture, and reQected great credit on the parties wbo super- 

 intended their management. The plants very Car exceeded all that we ever 

 saw at any exhibition in the country, and were well worth the coming a few 

 hundred miles to see. 



We had not time to take down the names of every specimen, as the pres- 

 sure of spectators was generally so great, as to preclude our standing long 

 enough to enable us to do it, but among the mauy novelties and beauties, 

 we noted down the following : — 



Pelargoniums — The entire lot exhibited were of superior growth, each 

 person exhibited twelve plants, and duly to appreciate the excellence of 

 the specimens can only be done by seeiug them. The winning specimens 

 were fine in the extreme. They were plants struck in the autumn 1837, and 

 now formed bushes about two foot and a half high, and three in diameter 

 over the heads clothed in most vigorous foliage quite down to the edge of 

 the pot on every side, so that not a stem could be seen, and these well- 

 jjrown plants were profusely clothed with flowers of extraordinary size and 

 beauty. The method ol management we will give in a subsequent num- 

 ber. 



The first twelve we noticed was that of Mr. Gaines of Battersea, who 

 had the gold medal awarded for them, and to which he was justly entitled. 

 They consisted of the following kinds. Criterion, Gaines's King, Gaines's 

 Conqueror, Magnet, Pictum, Gauntlett, Lady Dillon. Dennis's Perfection, 

 Lord Byron, Lady Denbigh, and Duchess ol Roxburgh. 



Those of Messrs, Colley and Hill, were the following; — Diadem, Louis 

 Phillippe, Climax, Duchess of Sutherland, Pictum, Hericartianum, Maid of 

 Athens. Fosteri Rosea, Gem, Beauty of Ware, Dennis's Perfection, Lady 

 Mary.
