 Hortensis Variegata. Our illustration '"gives bat a faint 

 idea of the beauty of this pretty variegated form, which, 

 while a very old plant, has almost been entirely lost to culti-

 ing object either as a pot plant or when planted in the open 

 border; and while the flowers are not so large as in the type, 

 the foliage, which is handsomely variegated, the ground 

 color being of a creamy white, with irregular blotches and 

 markings of light and dark green in the centre, making it an 

 attractive plant at all times. We have grown a large stoclc, 

 and are in a position to furnish strong plr.nts at 25 cts. each ; 

 $2. 50 per dozen.
