at this picture and see whether you would not like upon 

 your premises a duplicate of it. It is a picture of a bench 

 of our famous Silver Pink Snapdragon SEEDLINGS at 

 Memorial. Seed sown any time now will bloom before. 

 Memorial day, but a second crop, such as seen in the 

 accompanying picture, will come on for May 30, the 

 greatest flower day of the year.

the spring was also very unfavorable, 

 80 that manj fields were ploughed up 

 ^acin at this period. With the excep- 

 tion of the last two weeks of August 

 we hare had exceptionally little sun- 

 shine; o* the contrary, however, cool, in 

 many cases even cold weather, so that 

 the results will not fail to appear later 

 on: 'No sunshine, no seeds.* More- 

 over, the development of nearly all va- 

 rieties was retarded, so that it would 

 probably be sufficient to say that there 

 will come a considerable deficiency of 

 all varieties. 



"Begarding flower seeds, the condi- 

 tions to plant the annual flowers this 

 year were very favorable at the begin- 

 ning of the spring. The plants, how- 

 ever, did not develop in consequence 

 of the persistent cold weather in June 

 and July. If the present mild weather 

 will continue during the after-summer 

 and autumn a middling crop can be ex- 

 pected. Several sorts, however, were 

 totally lost, while the area sown was 

 not large. As regards Nasturtium Tom 

 Thumb, a small area was sown, while 

 the development of the plants in many 

 districts still remains much to be de- 

 sired, so that it is generally to be feared 

 that we shall have a small crop. The 

 situation of tall nasturtium is looking 

 more favorable, so that a middling crop 

 may be expected. 



"The late cold weather during the 

 flowering '-season very much obstructed 

 the setting to seed as regards myosotis, 

 several biennials 'ind perennials, so 

 that the produce will be very small. ' '
