CROTONS. 



Nothing can excel the beauty and 

 richness of coloring that is found in 

 this class of plants. They are beautiful as 

 pot plants for the conservatory, making hand- 

 some specimens for decorative and e.xhibition 

 purposes, and are now used extensively as 

 bedding plants, for which purpose they are 

 exceptionally well adapted. They should 

 be planted in full sun in a position where 

 they can be liberally supplied with water, 

 which develops the most wonderful color- 

 ings in the foliage. Undoubtedly the mo.st
