FOREIGN VINES FOR GRAPERIES. 



The best results in vineries are obtained where good planting or fruiting canes are used, such as 

 liave been carefully grown with abundance of fibrous roots, and the wood properly ripened, so that the 

 vinos may have had the natural rest incident to tlie dormant condition when planted. This is most 

 imi'ortant, whether the vines are for pot culture, fruiting canes or for permanent planting in borders. 



Special importations of the best English-grown vines are sent out largely every season, and both 

 the planting and fruiting canes Invariably give satisfaction. 



The varieties noted below — "H. G." for Hot Graperies, " C. G." for Cold Graperies, and " H. or C. 

 G." for either— are the best kinds now in cultivation.
