fronts and backs, done up with yeed 

 mats, in the same way that all the! 

 choicest stocks are grown. Their Superb-' 

 issima strain has enormous flowers, near- 

 ly all having yellow throats. It is a 

 really magnificent strain for pot culture; 

 the flowers are really too large for bed- 

 ding. A very useful strain for bedding 

 and general purposes is Titania, flowers 

 of which are slightly fringed, of varied 

 colors, both striped and selfs. 



Then among the rank and file come 

 Primula obconica compacta, which makes 

 neat, little, bushy plants, and shows a 

 considerable variation in color; my guide 

 «aid that he thought they might in time 

 iake the place of the Chinese primula. 

 An interesting plant was the result of a 

 cross between sinningia and gloxinia, the 

 object being to get a stronger leaf than 

 that possessed by the latter plant. The 

 experiment is only yet in the early 

 stages, but promises rather well. 



In the greenhouse were a fine lot of 

 gloxinias in different types, and varied 

 colorings. Emperor Frederick is a fine 

 red, with white edge, which comes true 

 from seed. 



In the gardens Ageratum Princess 

 Pauline, blue, with white center, was 

 pretty. Then in the fields growing by the 

 acre were noted Lilliput nasturtiums, 

 dwarf er and more floriferous than the

Tom Thumb section, and varied in col- 

 oring. Phlox Drummondi, brilliant rose, 

 Coccinea, and chamois, rose, were very 

 striking. Delphinium Chinensis, blue, a 

 plant of about eighteen inches in height, 

 gave a -bit of richest ultramarine blue. 

 Alyssum procumbens, a dwarf form of 

 sweet alyssum, makes a neat and pretty 

 bordering annual. Stock-flowered lark- 

 spur, brilliant carmine, makes a beauti- 

 fully bright and refined bit of color. The 

 Emperor larkspurs, about eighteen inches 

 high, are the largest flowered of any; 

 azure blue, and black blue were noted as 

 very telling colors in this class of lark- 

 spur.
