FEXXJNIA.. 



For out-door decoration or house culture few plants are equal 

 to this class. They commence flowering early, and continue a 

 mass of bloom throughout the whole season, until killed by fr. ■.•-t ; 

 easily cultivated, requiring rich soil and a sunny situation. Of 

 late years the single-striped, mottled and double varieties have 

 been greatly improved. The strains we offer of our own "grow- 

 ing, we can safely say without contradiction, are the bes: that 

 can be procured either in this country or in Europe.
