petunias, verbenas, zinnias and some 

 others promise medium results, but pan- 

 sies suffered severely from the protracted 

 drought and yielded but half a crop. 

 Biennials and perennials promise medium 

 to good crops. Pot plants, grown in the 

 greenhouses, such as begonias, calceo- 

 larias, cinerarias, coleus, cyclamen, glox- 

 inias, heliotropiums, pelargoniums. Prim- 

 ula Chinensis, Primula obconica, saint- 

 paulias, streptocarpus, etc., are yielding 

 a good crop. 



At Erfurt the season has been about 

 normal and the outlook is more favor- 

 able. Cauliflower, radish, leek, parsley 

 and parsnip are in good shape. Brussicas 

 are only middling, the winter having 

 made great gaps in the plantations. Let- 

 tuces have not been largely planted, but 

 appear in first-rate condition. Beets have 

 not been so extensively planted as usual; 

 long sorts promise well, but round sortd 

 will be short. Some pea crops suffered 

 by a recent hail. The flower fields look 

 fine, those of phloxes, verbenas, etc., 

 rivaling one another in brilliancy of tint.
