M AURANDIA ALBA GRANDIFLORA 



M. Herb, seedsman and hybridizer, of 

 Naples, Italy, has succeeded in raising 

 a race of maurandia with blooms much 

 larger than those of the old species. In 

 recent years he was enabled to introduce 

 the large-flowered varieties, M. rosea and 

 M. atrocoerulea grandiflora, and last year 

 M, alba grandiflora, raised from, it is 

 assumed, M. Barclayana alba. The Hor- 

 ticultural Trade Journal says this new 

 variety is a stronger grower than the

SOUTHERN SEED CROPS.

' ' The growing crops of such seeds as 

 are produced in our section of the coun- 

 try are all looking splendid, and the 

 prospects for good crops are bright, pro- 

 viding we don't have an early fall frost. 

 Our season on everything is at least a 

 month late. 



"Our crop of collard seed, which has 

 already been harvested, was not over 

 half a crop, for the reason of late spring 

 frost while the plants were in flower, 

 which considerably injured the yield. 

 This also applied to mustard. 



"The melon seed crop, which is one

 to be short, for the reason of unusually 

 high prices for the fruit, causing a 

 great many growers to be unable to re- 

 sist the temptation to sell their melons 

 in the field for commercial purposes. 



"The okra crop is looking well, but, 

 like the cotton crop, it is at least a 

 month late and is almost sure to be cut 

 short by fall frost.
