GLOXINIAS. 



Ready in November. 



Gloxinias are among the most beautiful of greenhouse 

 plants, the flowers being remarkable for the intensity 

 and variety of their coloring, and the exquisite manner 

 in which they are often blotched, mottled, penciled and 

 blended. The plants are extremely floriferous and, by 

 making successive pottings, they may be had in bloom 

 the greater part of the year. They thrive best in a soil 

 composed of leaf -mould and peat in equal parts, with a 

 little sand added. When growing, plenty of water 

 should be siipplied, but it should always be tepid. The 

 bulbs we offer are large-sized, and of the erect-flower- 

 ing strain. 12 cts. each, $1.25 per doz., $7 per 100.
