V/e acquired the late Rev. John Nelsons stock of new Lachenalias, and have no hesitation 
in saying the thru varieties with which Mr. Nelson's name is associated surpass in beauty and free- 
flowering all other species and varieties ; indeed, Mr. Nelson s Seedlings, which from time to time 
hove been exhibited, has dune much to popularizing this very interesting class of plants. The happy 
crosses made by Mr. Nelson give us a free-flowering Aurea and a yellow Luteola, thus adding con- 
siderably to the beauty, and enhancing the value, of the family. Those who are acquainted with this 
race oj Winter and Spring-flowering greenhouse bulbous plants, are aware that L. luteola is the one 
most generally cultivated, having a fine constitution, and being an admirable plant for hanging baskets; 
but there is too much green in the flower. L. aurea is remarkable for its rich deep yellow colour t but
