TRUE HIGHLAND PINK. 



JAMES GRIGOR, Nurseryman, Norwich, begs to 

 call the attention of the Land Proprietors of England to 

 this very desirable variety of Pinus sylvestris, which has been 

 raised fr> m seeds collected on the mountains of Strathspey, and 

 of which he has strong plants ready to be sent out. For intro- 

 ducing this tree Messrs. Grioor, of Forres and Elgin, were 

 awarded several premiums by the Highland and Agricultural 

 Society of Scotland j and in that part of the country this Pine 

 is rapidly superseding the common soft-wooded variety. For 

 all economical purposes its chief merit consists in the hardness 

 and durability of its wood ; hence it is much sought after at 

 present for railway sleepers. Pictorially considered, or as a 

 landscape ornament, it rivals even the Cedar of Lebanon. Sir 

 Walter Scott describes it as assuming much of "the bold and 

 contorted figure of the Oak;" and in the last No. of the Quar- 

 terly Review it is recommended as a fit tree to be planted in 

 churchyards and cemeteries. 



Strong plants in pots, such as rabbits and har^swill not 

 destroy 6rf. each. 



Ditto, not in pots, 18 inches high . . 30s. per 1000. 



Ditto „ 15 „ . 20s. 



Ditto „ 1 foot high . . . 15*. 



Ditto „ 3 years old . . . 10s. „ 



J . G. would recommend all who require them to furnish them- 

 selves immediately with these Piucs, and to plant thefn forth- 

 with. Spring planting is exceedingly hazardous ; and when 

 followed by such a season as was experienced during the com- 

 mencement of the present summer, the young trees are sure to 

 be killed. 



Cedrus Deodara raised in the open ground, being the strongest 

 plants yet offered in England, los.each. Araucaria imbricata, 

 Pinus exce l sa. L arioio, Austriaca, &c. Sec. on reasonable terms. 



JOHN SLATER, Florist, Cheetuam Hill, near 

 Manchester, respectfully calls the attention of the Floricul- 

 tural Public to his large and select collection of the following
