FLOWER BASKETS. 



Flower-baslcet made of old trees is a beautiful receptacle for flowers — of an octagonal 

 shape, five feet in diameter, and fourteen iuclies deep, makes a stand of very good 

 proportions. Four Nierembergia, trailing Lobelias five, blue Anagallise two, Mau- 

 randyas three, and behind these four Verbenas, eight Tom Thumbs, about five Petunias, 

 three yellow Calceolaria, and two Heliotropes — a tasteful group. 



THE FIRST DESIGN IN THE PLACE OF THE TOROLOSA CUFRESSA. 



SECOND DF:SIGN for FLOWER-BASKET OPPOSITE DRAWING- 

 ROOM WINDOW. 



Place the bark carefully outwards, and relieve it by nailing pieces of old rope over 

 it in various ways for embellishment. These baskets are well calculated for growing 

 plants in where dogs abound. Fill it with rich mould, and place the taller flowering 

 plants in the middle, and procumbent ones outside, to hang down in four graceful 

 festoons.
