Genfudia acaiiln. A/n/reic-u, and iixrliphiili;ii . These 

 are the best g-entiaiis for a town rockery. A sandy loam 

 with plenty ot stones in it will suit them perfectly. 



Ilji'rix seiii/jervi rcii-'i, curi/'olia, and (J-i/jralfaricd are the 

 most useful of this f^enus^ and all they require is a good 

 loamy soil and the fullest daylight. 



Ibcriilclla nitiindlj-'ulia is a beautiful tap-rooted plant 

 that must be raised from seeds on a g'liod, deep, sandy soil. 



lleliiiitl/ieiinim aaniiuiii, nisiiiitniiij'oliii in, and tnherarin 

 are good town plants that love the sun, but do not object to 

 a little shade, and any soil will suit them. 



Litlumperminii proxlralniii and petrieniii are two gems 

 for the sunny part of the rockery where they can spread 

 over stones and make carpets of blue flowers. 



M/josoiis azorica and (Ihsitiflora are the best of the 

 forget-me-nots for very choice purposes. 



The remainder are noted under " Siebold's Primrose.''^
