Verbena teucroides rosea. — This, in every other respect but the fine rose 

 colour of its flowers, is the same in appearance as V. teucroides. 



Salvia dulcis, with its beautiful bright rose-coloured flowers, and S. patens, 

 with its intense blue, were both in fine bloom against a south aspected wall, 

 having stood out through winter without protection. 



Loasa Herbertia. — An hybrid, produced between L. laterita and L. Pent- 

 landica. It is not near so rampant as L. laterita, and the foliage is much 

 handsomer. The flowers are intermediate in colour. We saw it in fine bloom 

 in the greenhouse of Messrs. Hendersons, Edgeware-road.

 Hendersons ; the plant is of dwarf habit. The flowers arc produced in clusters, 

 of thirty to forty in each, of a pure while. Each blossom is about a cpaarter of 

 an inch long. It merits a place in every greenhouse.

 flowers are pendant, of a pale sulphur, each blossom being about an inch and a
