COLEUS, "The Shah,'* or Lady Bur;-;:!." 



We imported tlie " Shah " Coleus last season, but as it showed no indications of the 

 singular leaf-marking' as shown in the engraving above, threw it away, tbinking we had 

 got a wrong sort, but on importing it again last summer, we found t bat on growing it to a 

 large plant, it showedits beautiful markings on every plant , after it had grown to the height 

 of two or three feet. All who now buy it from us again this season, may expect that 

 the young plants they receive may have no indications of the curious leaf-marking, but 

 plain, like the ordinary bronzo sorts — at the same time, they may rest assured that the 

 half of each leaf will assume a golden yellow color as soon as the plant is grown. See 

 cut. 50. cents each. $4 50 per dozen.
