XXXlX. Report on Plants Grown for Trial at Chiswick in 1875. 
By Thomas Moore, P.L.S., Ploral Director. 
It was stated in the last Report of the Chiswick Board of Direc- 
tion that the work in the floral department had been in some degree 
crippled by the diminished facilities granted to the Superintendent, 
but that nevertheless some very good work had been accomplished. 
This consisted in the cultivation, with the view to a comparison of 
their merits, of collections of eighty-two varieties of Bedding Pansies, 
of 125 varieties of Fuchsias, and of 350 varieties of Bedding Pelar- 
goniums. The Floral Committee held several meetings during the 
blooming season for the critical examination of these collections, 
and awarded twenty-three certificates of merit to different varieties 
of Pansies, twenty-one certificates to the best varieties of Fuchsias, 
and seventeen certificates to Pelargoniums which were considered 
as improvements on those previously rewarded. 
The following are descriptive notes of the several varieties in 
each group to which certificates were awarded, the notes being 
sufiicient to give^ some notion of the habit, colour, and charac- 
teristics of the kinds, and also to afford some clue to their identi- 
fication. 
Bedding Pansies and Yiolas. 
The varieties of these plants subjected to the test of trial were 
contributed by Messrs. Dickson & Co., Edinburgh; Messrs. Cocker
