HYBRID DEUTZIAS. 



(.^uite a number of hybrid deutzias 

 have been put in commerce during tlie 

 last ten years by V. Lemoine & Sons, 

 Nancy, France. About all tested in this 

 country have turned out meritorious ac- 

 <juisitions. The first was named Deutzia 

 Lemoiuei, and said to be the result of 

 crossing D. gracilis witli I), parviflora. 

 The pure white flowers are borne on 

 strong, rather upright branches in the 

 greatest profusion. While less dwarf in 

 habit than D. gracilis, it is highly deco- 

 rative outside, and has proved entirely 

 hardy in New York state. It is well 

 liked by florists and is used in increas- 

 ing quantity for pot <;ulture under glass. 

 The blooms open well at comparatively 

 low temperatures, and the flowering time 

 is readily hastened by increa.sed heat, so 

 that it is an easily manageable subject. 

 A dwarf er and more compact form hav- 

 ing the same general character but more 

 useful for greenhouse blooming has been 

 disseminated under the name of D. IjC- 

 moinei compacta. 



The union of D. glacilis with D. dis- 

 color purpurascens has rewarded Lemoine 

 with an especially distinct lot of hybrids, 

 with large, bell-shaped flowers, with pre- 

 <lominating rose and pink colors. The 

 best known in this country are I), cam- 

 panulata, with nearly white, broadly bell- 

 shaped blooms, and D. gracilis rosea, 

 with smaller rose-colored blooms. Among 

 more recent promising varieties, says a 

 Avriter in the Rural New-Yorker, is D. 

 discolor grandiflora, with the largest 

 flowers of all, quite an inch in diameter, 

 light pink with a deeper shade on the re- 

 verse of the petals. D. kalmiu'flora, with 

 clusters of pink flowers, disposed in 

 broad clusters like our mountain laurel, 

 is highly spoten of abroad, and D. Fleur 

 de Pommier (Apple-blossom) is also re- 

 garded as particularly choice. New va- 

 rieties are issued every year by this en- 

 terprising nursery, but they are slow in 

 finding their way to this country. 



Salem, Va. — .T. J. (.'urran has been ill 

 for two Aveeks with a bad case of the 

 grip. 



Washington, D. C. — The residence of 

 blinder Bros, was destroyed by fire, the 

 result of a defective flue, February 24.
