HibLsciis, Peachblow. It blos.soms the entire .season, 
the new growth constantly making new buda. It .should be replanted in 
larger pots or tubs from time to tinm, as it increases in size very rapidly 
and requires plenty of water. In addition to its vigorous growth and pro- 
fasion of bloom, the blossoms are delightfully fragrant, filling a room 
■with their delicate perfume. The plant is free from disea.se and the at- 
tacks of insects, and thrives under most adven^ie circumstancas. The 
Brugniansia is a beautiful plant and one that has met with enormous 
sales since its introduction, the D. Cornucopia has been admired by thtm- 
sands and growni in many homes, but both of these popular plants are
