REMARKS. 
New Peronia “ Count Zicuy,”—This is a very beautiful Petunia 
and well adapted for pot cultivation, training over a wire trellis, &. 
The flowers are of intermediate size, the ground colour deep rosy 
crimson, clouded towards the limb-margin of the corolla with glowing 
purple, and having a good light centre, the throat being distinctly 
striated with dark pencillings. Some of the flowers eventually become 
rosy crimson selfs, and (interpersed with the darker ones) produce a 
very pretty appearance in contrast with the bright verdure of the 
leaves. 
SALVIA PATENS ALBA.—As Salvia patens is admired for its fine 
blue, so the subject of our present notice will become a favourite from 
its whiteness. In foliage, robustness of habit and general appearance, 
if we except the inflorescence, it is of course, as the name imports, but 
a counterpart of .S. patens, The flowers are equal in size to the latter, 
and of a snowy whiteness, having, however, an inconspicuous tinge of 
a pale blue (which enhances rather than detracts from its merit) in the 
centre of the lower lip of each flower. _It will doubtless be found a 
useful acquisition to the flower garden, and all the more desirable for 
being a white Salvia patens. 
Manure ror Garpens.— Sulphate of Ammonia.—Half an ounce 
toa gallon of water is a powerful stimulant, but must only be applied as 
you would water; the soil should be soaked. ‘Two waterings will be 
found sufficient.— Soot, at the rate of six quarts to a hogshead of water, 
and stirred well, till it dissolves, is an excellent liquid manure 
may be applied much oftener, and on a larger scale. Guwano.—Half 
an ounce to a gallon of water is strong enough to be used with 
advantage, without danger of injuring anything; and two or three 
applications, a month apart, will not be too much. These liquid ma- 
nures are most efficacious when applied to plants that have filled their 
pots with roots, and want shifting, for it gives new life, and protracts 
the starving point some weeks; but weak as they may be supposed to 
be if applied without intermission, long together they will do mischief.
