Additional novelties. 



For the convenience of our customers, we append a list of novelties which are 

 at present being offered, but which we have not yet tried sufficiently to justify us 

 in describing them, or in venturing an opinion as to their value. 



The descriptions are those of the originators, and the plants which will be 

 supplied are not of our own growing, but have been procured from the originators 

 or disseminators. We hope and expect that many, if not most, of these novelties 

 will, after trial, prove to be meritorious.
