FLORAL EMBLEMS. 299 



TASTE. 



SCARLET FUCHSIA. Fuchsia Corcinea. 

 " Elegant, with ease." 



We place the fuchsia in the floral emblems 

 as the symbol of taste ; for, with its richly- 

 coloured blossoms, there is a peculiar har- 

 mony and beauty in the unassuming appear- 

 ance of the flowers, which hang- with so much 

 gracefulness amongst the foliage.
