416 NEW PELARGONIUMS. 



The above list may seem long, but it has been made 

 from experiment with many hundred varieties, and all 

 recommended are worth growing for house culture. 



For bedding, however, a very short list will suffice. 



Mr. Gray writes : " Orbiculatum, Sir John Moore, 

 Coleshill, Wellington, Douglas Pearson, and Sir Charles 

 Napier are the best among the Scarlets, and to these 

 must be added, for large beds, General Grant. 



" For pinks I recommend but two, Master Christine and 

 Pink May Queen. 



" There are no white-flowering varieties fit for bedding, 

 but their place is well supplied by the white-edged Albion 

 Cliffs. 



"In the golden-leaved section, Crystal Palace Gem still 

 holds the first place. 



" Of bronzes, the Moor is the best. Harold, the Earl of 

 Kosslyn, and the Marquis of Lome are next, but at a 

 long interval. 



" There are no silver tricolors worth growing for bedding. 

 Of the golden ones Mrs. Pollock is the best."
