ing in variety annually, and which already embrace every 

 shade of colour, scarlet, blue, rose, lilac, white, pink, &c. 

 Planted in the flower borders, they impart beauty and 

 variety through the Summer, and cultivated in the green- 

 house, they embellish it a great part of the Winter. 



Viburnum tinus. Laurustinus, A much-admired half 

 hardy evergreea shrub, producing clusters of white blossoms 

 from January to May. There are other species very 

 similar in habit, and one with striped leaves. 



Viola. Violet. Of those beauties of the garden, some 

 of which are denominated " Florist's Flowers," there are 

 upwards of a hundred species and varieties. The early 

 Violets are highly fragrant, and the variety and beauty of 

 the Pansey tribe, almost exceed description or conception. 

 As these splendid dwarf plants decorate the greenhouse and 

 flower borders from January to December, they are worthy 

 of careful cultivation. 



Yucca, aloe-folia, and its beautiful variety, variegata, are 

 desirable plants to cultivate, from their singular appearance, 

 contrasted with other plants. Their blossoms, which 

 are white, grow in spikes, but the plants do not flower much 

 until several years old.
