REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON PLANTS AND FLOWERS. 



193 



The Messrs. Farquhars' group of evergreens was a remarkable 

 assemblage of coniferous trees and shrubs and of great educational 

 value. They were all handsome plants and sufficiently large to 

 give an idea of their value in the garden. A Silver Medal was 

 awarded this display and a list of the species and varieties shown 

 is given herewith.
