 seen seetu to sunjicst tii;it it is getting 

 wc-iker in growth than il w;is years ago; 

 probably this may be owing to its not 

 gel tint; ;i fair share of jitteution in cul- 

 ture since we have had the newer sorts. 

 I'onipacta niultillora finds favor still, for 

 wliei-e neat dwarf p!;ints are wanted 

 there is nothing better. 



With spiru'.'is. as with many other ea.s- 

 ily grown plants, it is only the sjieeial 

 sorts that get iiuudi attention in culture; 

 • iiid I must say that if the older varie- 

 ties received the same careful attention 

 as the iii'wer sorts do, we siionld often 

 fail to lind so much ditference between 

 them. Horticultural Advertiser. 



STOCK BEAUTY OF NICE. 



This lin(^ stock tippears to be adaptable 

 liotli for winter llowering or treated as 

 a ton-week for the open border. The 

 plants are f;iirly tall when grown in 

 pots, :ind their sjiikes of salmon-pink 

 tlowers render them useful where sot't 

 sh.ades ail' in rei|nesi. It may be called 

 a giant \ariety, and it does not appeal' 

 to lie sulliciently known. The percentage 

 ot' double flowers is Large, but we have 

 had suflicieiit ..-ingle-flow ered plants to 

 lie .'ible to s;i\i' a nice bit 't\' seed, —
