 at the following prices : —

25 ditto 15s. 



12 ditto 9#. 



Well established in small pots, or by post free. 



NEW DWARF CHINESE OR LILLIPUTIENNE 



CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 



This new and beautiful class is well deserving the attention 

 of cultivators, from their exceeding dwarf habit (not attaining 

 more than 1 foot in height). The profusion of flowers with 

 which they are covered, as well as the great variety and dis- 

 tinctness of colour, will render Ultra general favourites. Str« ng 

 plants for autumn blooming are. now ready for sending out at 

 the following prices : — 

 9 fine varieties, sent out in 1849 

 13 ditto raised by M. Lefcois, and sent out for the 



first time 'ast season 



30 extra fine ditto, quite new, of this year, and selected by 

 us when in bloom, Ss. Sd each, 6 for 18*., 15 for 37*. 6d., 



or the ^et of 30 varieties 



The above are perfect gems. Engravings of the same 

 be seen at the Nursery. 



Descriptive Catalogues of the above may be had on applica- 

 tion. Printed directions of their successful and easy method 

 of cultivating the Chrysanthemum for exhibition, &c, will be 

 forwarded with all orders. 



« GLOXINIA PETOIANA." 



We have the greatest satisfaction in calling attention to the 

 above magnificent Gloxinia, raised at the seat of Samuel Morton 

 Peto, Esq., MP., Somerleyton Hall, Suffolk, and which is, 

 without exception, the handsomest of the genus. The flowers 

 are white, the upper and lower parts of the throat being sur- 

 rounded (as in G. Fyfiana) with the richest crimson lake. It is \ 

 a profuse bloomer, the flowers very large, of great substance, 

 and of«the finest form, and will prove a mott valuable addition 

 to this beautiful genus. 



Good established Plants are now being sent out at 

 15s. each, with the usual discount to the trade, if three or more 

 are taken.— Youell and Co., Royal Nursery, Great Yarmouth.
