WILLIAMS HOTHOUSE SHADING, 
: THE MOST SUITABLE FOR 
Shading Orchids, Ferns, Palms, and Stove and Greenhouse Plants. 
T is a strong, durable Cotton Netting, woven in squares so close as to exclude the direct rays of the sun, but. admitting the 
greatest amount of light attainable through shading. It withstands the weather better than any other class of Shading, 
and may be beneficially used, on account the thickness of its texture, during cold weather to keep the frost out. The 
leading Orchid and Plant Growers in the ¢ untry have used this material for some years, and speak very highly of it, pro- 
nouncing it to be the very best material for Plants they have ever used. 
BLINDS MADE UP AND FIXED COMPLETE IN ANY PART OF THE COUNTRY. 
Sold in pieces 30 yds. long by 1} yd. wide, price 40s. each. Samples submitted gratis. 
ae ae NEW “EUREKA’ SHADING. 
A want has long been felt amongst plant cultivators for a good, cheap 
Shading which can be readily applied, where blinds are not used. This 
new material is introduced to supply this want. It is in the form of a white 
powder, and is prepared for use by applying boiling water to the compound, 
and allowing it to cool, when it can be applied by means of a brush. This 
new Shading is a great advantage over “Summer Cloud,” and other preparations 
which have to be applied in a warm state—a most inconvenient method. In 
addition to this, it is of a white colour, which, being a non-conductor of heat, 
reflects the rays of the sun, thereby keeping the houses upon which it is used 
much cooler, It dries instantaneously, and can be rubbed off easily when 
moist without the use of soda, which is required where paint is used. It will 
last the whole season, and it is not necessary to wash it off, as it will disappear 
by degrees when the autumn rains come ; this is a great point in its favour, 
as well as being the CHEAPEST SHADING IN THE MARKET.
