LINN^AN GARDEN ANO NURSERIKS. 



Flushing, near New 1 or/Er.— WM. PRINCE & SONS have 



jusl published iheir New Catalogue with greatly reduced pHces. 

 Application therefor, and all orders, must be sent direct to 

 them per mail. The Fruil Trees are of the largest size for 

 transplanting, and suitable for Orchards lo come promptly in- 

 to bearing. Of the superior new Flemish Pears, and other 

 new varieties, the trees are 3 lo 4 years from the graft, and in 

 the most vigorous state, as are also the German varieties of 

 Apples, Cherries, Plums and Peaches, which are so well cal- 

 culated for a northern climate ; Ornamental Trees aud Flower- 

 ing Sliiubs can be lurnished of the largest size, worth treble 

 the price of small ones, as several years are thus gained in 

 embellishments. In fact ihose who wish Very superior Trees 

 can be assured of receiving such as cannot fail to give them 

 satisfaction J the immense stock on hand, affording the means 

 of making superior selections. The collections ol hardy Flow- 

 ering Plants, Green House Plants, and Bulbous Flower Roots, 

 have been enriched with all the new varieties, which are offer- 

 ed at very low prices. The assortments of Roses and Double 

 Dahlias comprise all the splendid new varieties, and each 

 collection occupies an acre of ground. — A great discount 

 is made on both these classes of flowers, and Splendid 

 Dahlias are supplied at ^3, ^'^k ^'id S^ P^'" tlozen, each 

 root a distinct named variety j Chinese Mulberry or Morus 

 Multicaulis, al ^4.^ per dozen, ^25 per 100 j Isabella, Ca- 

 tawba, Winne, or Buck, and Alexander Grapes, at JJfS per 

 dozen or ^20 per 100; Superior Lancashire Gooseberries, as- 

 sorted at $2> per dozen, or ^20 per 100; Fine Red Raspber- 

 ries, ^6 per lUO. Where so desired, selections will be made 

 of ilie most hardy kinds of Fruit and Ornamental Trees and 

 Plants, suited to a northern climate, and the situation of our 

 Nurseries, which are in a lofty and open exposure, renders the 

 trees particularlv hardy. The assorlment of Garden, Field, 

 and Flower Seeds is unrivalled in extent, and ibrms a complete 

 concentration of the choicest varieties known in Europe, and 

 this country, and having been raised under our own inspection, 

 or grown expressly for us by our correspondents, we expressly 

 guarantee their excellence and accuracy, aud we ask no pav- 

 menl where they do not prove exactly as represented. The 

 Catalogue coninins many new and very superior varieties of 

 vegetable and Flower Seeds, and among the Field Seeds are 

 Superior Provence Luzerne, White Dutch Clover, Pacey's 

 perennial Rye Grass, New Italian do Early Angus and Hopc- 

 lown Oats, English Potato Oats weighing 44 lbs. per bushel, 

 Orchard Grass, Tall Oats Grass, Trifolium incarnatum, or 

 Early Crimson Clover, Burnel. AiC. Also, 100 bushels Tay- 

 bir's Forty fold, or Crimson Nonsuch Potato, which is now 

 taking precedenee of all others in England, and 50 bushels Po- 

 tato Onions. Venders of Seeds will be supplied at very low 

 rales and a credit to suit their convenience. Where a large 

 number of Trees, &c. are wanted, a discount will be made and 

 a credit allowed if desired, and lo Nurseries the terms will in 

 every respect be made favorable. Every invoice emanating 

 from us has our printed heading and signature, and none others
