we have no plants to offer. An intelligent horticulturist, in whose opinion we 
place great reliance, writes : "After an extended and careful inquiry, I have 
come to the conclusion that there is no merit in them whatever." Many other 
novelties offered in various catalogues find no room in our collection for simi- 
lar reasons.
