June 18. — Exhibited. Fourteen Brandy apples, and thirteen Nonpareil 

 apples, from R. Brook, Esq. F.H.S. Three hoes, from J. C. Loudon, Esq. 

 [to prove the truth of our assertion, that what is called " Lord Vernon's 

 hoe " is merely a slight variation of the Spanish hoe : his Lordship was 

 told this, when he first gave the hoe his name, by Mr. Malpas, the foreman 

 at Messrs. Weir's, Oxford Street]. Pinks, Knevett's new pine strawberry, 

 CEnothera macrocarpa, Calampelis scabra, from Mr. Joseph Kirke. Yel- 

 low double roses, from Mrs. Lawrence. [These roses were beautifully 

 grown : the tree is on a western exposure, and is kept clear of insects by 

 washing it abundantly with soapsuds. When the flower-buds first make 

 their appearance, they are thinned out, so as to leave no more on the tree 

 than experience has shown that it has strength enough to expand. From this 

 case, and several others which have lately come under our notice, we are 

 inclined to think, with Dr. Lindley, that the principal cause why the yel- 

 low rose seldom opens its blossoms fully, is a want of vigour in the plant : 

 hence the use of thinning the buds, &c.] Kalmfa latifolia, and roses, from 

 Mr. Glenny. Fruit of Keen's seedling strawberry, from J. Allnutt, Esq.
