attain a height of about 18 inches, and produce from 10 to r5 blossoms each. Where cut flowers are in demand, 
these new Ranunculus are most valuable, as flowers may be gathered from the same bed several times a week 
during the flowering period, without impairing the display.

THE ANEMONE, OR WINDFLOWER. 
For brilliancy of colour in Spring, few flowers can compare with the Anemone, which in spring produces 
its masses of double or single blossoms, in an endless variety of shades, scarlets , crimsons, roses , blushes, lilacs . 
blues, purples and whites , all of which are valuable for cutting, and last long in water. For beds, edgings, and 
masses, it is matchless, and may be had in bloom, weather permitting, from November to July, according to 
situation, locality, and time of planting. 
Culture. — Any good soil, moderately well drained, suits the Anemone. Plant in succession, A. Coronaria 
varieties, from October to May, the roots four to six inches apart, at a depth of two to three inches, choosing 
a dry day, and when the ground is in good working condition. The plantings for Summer and Autumn- 
flowering should be in a situation where the ground is moist, and is shaded from the sun's rays from after io or 
tt a.m.

These Starry-flowered Single Anemones are remarkable for variety of brilliant colours, elegant flower';, 
and graceful foliage. A light well-drained soil and warm sheltered situation suits them best ; on rockwork

ANEMONE FULGENS (THE BEAUTIFUL SCARLET WINDFLOWER). 
Anemone fulgen3 is the most brilliant and graceful of all Winter and Spring-flowering Anemones. The 
rich dazzling scarlet flowers, and light elegant growth, render it the most attractive scarlet flower of Spring. It 
is of great value for table bouquets or vases, as it lasts a long time in water. If the roots are planted early in 
Autumn, flowers, weather permitting, may be gathered from Christmas; its hardiness is beyond all question, so 
that roots may be safely planted any month from August to May. The plantings made April and May should 
be in a situation where in summer i he ground is moist and the sun's rays do not fall on them after 10 or n a.m.

VARIOUS BEAUTIFUL ANEMONES. 
Anemone apennina, the blue Mountain Windflower, forms a dense cushion of rich blue, and is one of the 
loveliest dwarf Spring flowers. The varieties of Anemone neinorosa are most charming, and no flower border 
should be without its clumps of these, as they literally carpet the ground with their attractive flowers. Anemone 
nemorosa bracteata may be called “ the Jack in the Green ” of Anemones, the white petals resting on a profusion 
of green bracts. A. pulsatilla flowers Spring and Autumn, and makes a charming rock-plant. All the above- 
named species are charming on rockwork. As pot-plants these Anemones are very charming. A. japonica, 
white, rose and red, are the most decorative of Autumn-flowering herbaceous plants. Mr. William Robinson 
in his paper at the Conference on Hardy Flowers described the fine effect of Anemone apennina when planted in 
the meadows or near to large elm trees {the fiowers and foliage passing away before haymaking time); he also 
recommends that Anemone Japonica be planted in rough places outside the garden.
