To Carnation ' Wodenethe ' (votes, unanimous), from Messrs. 

 Wells, Merstham. A very free-flowering Tree Carnation, having 

 large pure white flowers borne on strong, stiff stems. The calyx is 

 non-bursting, and the blooms are very full and have a most pleasing 

 sw^eet clove perfume. (Fig. 45.) 



To Cineraria hybrida (votes, 15 for, 2 against), from Messrs. J.

 the centre is of deep blue. The habit of the plant is bushy, and par- 

 ticularly suitable for pot work. (Fig. 46.)
