Large plants somehow can never be in- 

 duced, after being transplanted, to pro- 

 duce the handsome spikes they may have 

 done previously. 



Blue is the predominating color among 

 delphiniums, but there are numerous 

 shades; though many of the varieties are 

 so nearly alike that, for general pur- 

 poses, a selection of about half-a-dozen 

 of the best will be ample. Of course, 

 anyone making a specialty of delphin- 

 iums can find plenty to select from, but 

 for grouping and producing , effect the 

 following varieties will meet all that is 

 necessary in this respect, viz.: King of 

 Delphiniums, dark blue and plum, with 

 white eye, very large; Sir John Forrest, 

 rich violet and purple, with large white 

 eye; Mrs. Chamberlain, rich blue and 

 plum, with brown eye; Persimmon, light 

 blue, cylindrical form; Lord Kitchener, 

 lavender, blue and white center; and 

 Primrose, white, with yellow eye. — Gar- 

 deners ' Magazine. 



SCABIOSA CAUCASICA, 



I. This very pretty blue mauve flower 

 has been plentiful in the market this 

 season. It comes in rather late in the 

 season, but now that this shade of color 

 is so much appreciated, it should be 

 worth the attention of those who grow 

 for provincial trade. It comes freely 

 from seed, and will succeed in almost 

 any soil. The color may vary a little, 

 yet with carefully selecting a few of the 

 most decided for seed purposes, it may 

 be improved rather than otherwise. 

 Where the flowers are cut as they open, 

 the same plants will continue in flower 

 for a long time. Although it may be 

 grown anywhere, good ground vrill give 

 best results. It seems to do best in light 

 loam. 



There is another plant, Catananche 

 coerulea, which is a hardy perennial, and 

 has flowers of a similar shape and color. 

 I find this, though not seen in Covent 

 Garden, is grown in the south, and is 

 much appreciated, I think it is quite 

 safe to recommend this to all who grow 

 hardy flowers for cutting. There is, I 

 believe, a little variation in the color of 

 this, as in most things which are raised 

 from seeds. Though a perennial it 

 comes freely from seeds, which should 

 be sown early in the year, under glass, 

 for flowering the same year. — Horticul-
