with a beautiful dark green shining foliage, grows and 

 flowers freely, and is highly esteemed. 



C. intermedia, a very large flower, shape of C. pom- 

 ponia, outside petals streaked to the extremity with a 

 rich blush, ground colour pure white, and is in high 

 estimation; grows and flowers freely. It is in very 

 few collections in Europe, and only in three in the 

 United States. 



C. rose Waratdh. The description of this flower is the 

 same as anemoneflora, but differs in colour, and being of 

 longer duration, the foliage is uncommonly large. 



C. Pressii's invincible. It has been asserted that 

 it is the same as that known by C. punctata and C. 

 Pressii. We have not seen it flower, but have seen a 

 drawing of it, the flower equally as large as double white, 

 and same shape, with the petals as regular ; the ground 

 colour brilliant red, and spotted with pure white. It is 

 one of the newest varieties, and much valued for its 

 unique beauty ; hence called Invincible ; foliage large. 



C. Rose Mundii, is like the garden rose of that name; 

 a large flower, ground colour pink streaked with white. 



C. compdcta is a new double white, petals and flower 

 not so large as the common, but more compact, and is 

 considered a very fine variety. 



C. gloriosa, is said to be a fine dark double red. 



C. Rossii, is said to be a fine rich double scarlet. 



Callicoma serratifolia, the only species and remarkable 

 for tufted yellow heads of flowers, which come out at 

 the axils, and continue from May to July. The foliage 

 is ovate lanceolate, deeply serrated, and opposite.
