is very pretty in bouquets.

§TRITELEIA, a charming dwarf winter and 
spring flowering plant ; its delicate porcelain- 
shaded flowers when seen in a mass, as an 
edging or in a bed, produce an effect 
quite unique. We had it, in the open 
ground, in bloom before Christmas, 1868, 
and it continued blooming till May, 1869. 
For the spring garden it may be associated 
with other colours, such as the dark purple 
or yellow pansy, the red or pink daisy, and 
with any other of the dwarf-growing spring 
flowers, as the Dog’s-Tooth Violet, Scilla 
sibirica, etc. Cultivated several in a pot, 
it is very effective, and emits a delicate fra- 
grance.

||TUBEROSES ; the flowers resemble the much- 
prized Stephanotis ; they are, however, much 
more fragrant, and being perfectly double 
they are more generally useful. If planted 
in succession, commencing 1st January, and 
continuing till 1st June, a supply of cut 
flowers may be had from May to November. 
They should be started in bottom-heat, in 
succession, from January to May, to secure 
bloom from August to December. Three 
or more roots are generally grown in a 
pot. The roots are not ready to send out till 
middle of December. 
Treatm ent adopted by the growers for Covent 
Garden. — Pot singly in 5 or 6-inch pots, 
and plunge in tan or any other gentle bot- 
tom heat, and attend to with water till the 
flower buds appear, then remove to a cool 
house. The bulbs intended for succession 
are kept on a dry shelf.

LIST OF PLANTS USED BY MR. FLEMING AT CLIVEDEN. 
READY TO SEND OUT ANY TIME AFTER THE 1ST OCTOBER. 
The phrase, Spring Flower Garden, is " familiar to our ears as household words," and to realize its charms 
requires none of the paraphernalia so necessarily adjunct to the Summer Flower Garden. All the plants and 
bulbs required for producing an effect in Spring— fay surpassing in variety of tint, diversity of form, and bril- 
liancy of colour, the subjects used in the summer garden— are perfectly hardy, so that as soon as the cold weather 
sets in and the exotics have been removed in-doors, the beds and borders require simply to be forked up and 
manured, and furnished as taste or fancy may suggest. Bulbs, such as Hyacinths, Narcissus, Tulips, Crocus, 
Snowdrops, Winter Aconites, Triteleias, Ranunculus, Anemones, Crown Imperials and Scillas, all have their 
places. Besides these there is a perfect galaxy of beauty to be realized from combinations of the following 
flowering plants — Alyssum, Arabis, Aubrietia, Cliveden double daisies — pink, red, and white ; Cliveden blue and 
white Forget-Me-Nots, and the charming Myosotis dissitiflora which blooms in February and continues, till May ; 
the Cliveden Pansies — blue, purple, yellow, white, and porcelain ; Polyanthus, Phlox subulata and Subulata alba, 
with their sheet of rose and pure white flowers resting on their mossy carpet of green foliage, the double white Pink, 
and Pearce's blush Pink ; Primroses and the Viola Cornuta Purple King and Mauve Queen ; also the white Viola 
Cornuta has been much recommended, and Viola lutea ; the single Wallflower and the double German Wallflower 
for back rows or for beds. Of annuals there are many of beauty the most striking ; and, when sown in autumn, 
the effect realized after the plants have stood the winter can only be fairly estimated by those who have cultivated 
them for maintaining and perpetuating the succession of a spring display. A Spring Garden means flowers, 
weather permitting, from Christmas to June, and any one possessing a garden need have no difficulty in having 
all this with the plants named. Of annuals we may mention a few : Agrostemma, Calandrinia speciosa, red and 
white ; Campanula pentagonia, lilac and white ; Candytuft, Clarkia, Collinsia, Godetia tcnella, Lasthenia, Ilyme- 
noxis, Leptosiphon, Linaria, Lupinus nanus, Nemophila, Oxyura, Platystemon, Saponaria, Silene pcndula and 
pseudo-atocion, Viscaria, Whitlavia, etc. Sow in September as early as possible out of doors, or later on in the 
-season in cold frames, and plant out in spring. Amongst ornamental foliage plants for the Spring Garden we
