two or three months. The colors, shades, £md 
markingB are innumerable. Of the self-colored 
(i, e. all of one color,) there are pure white, 
cream, salmon, rose, lilac, carmine, purple, violet 
and crimson in various shades. In some of the 
varieties two or more colors are combined in the 
same flower, either beautifully shaded, or with a 
distinct centre of one color, and the rest of the 
flower of another, and there are hand-somely 
striped varieties. The earlier sorts flower late in 
June, or eariy in July, others in August and Sep- 
tember, The plants increase in size very rapidly 
and in two years form large clumps. A selection 
of these alone would furnish a garden in the 
most brilliant manner. When we consider the 
great size of the flower clusters, the wide range 
of colors, and the exceeding delicacy of some, as 
contrasted with the intense brilliancy of others, 
it will be admitted that no class of plants excel 
them in utility. "We have recently added to our 
collection all the finest of the European varieties.
