given as plain and practical as possible, so that any one 

 perusing its pages and acting judiciously may be suc- 

 cessful in the cultivation of their plants. 



In conclusion, we have to record our thanks to the 

 Editors of the Gardeners' Chronicle, Messrs. Jas. Veitch 

 & Sons, Mr. William Bull, and other kind friends, for 

 the loan of some of the illustrations contained in this 

 edition.
