 STOCKS, [Mathiola) 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, [Mathiola amiua,) 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 off'er 

 the following select varieties, imported from one of the best 

 growers in Prussia : —
