 STOCKS, (Maihiola) The Stock Gilly flower is one of the 

 most popular, beautiful and important of our garden favo- 

 rites ; and whether for bedding, massing, or pot culture, it 

 is unsurpassed either for brilliancy and diversity of color, 

 or for profusion and duration of bloom. The TEN WEEK 

 STOCK, (Maihiola annua,) is most generally cultivated, and 

 blooms 10 to 12 weeks after being sown ; they grow from 6 

 to 15 inches high, and when grown in rich soil, and occa- 

 sionally watered with weak guano water, throw out an im- 

 mense quantity of lateral spikes of bloom, so that each plant 

 forms a perfect bouquet of delightful fragrance. We ofi:'er

 growers in Prussia : —
