THE RANUNCULUS. 
Culture,— P lant the Turban Ranunculus from October to March, and the Persian varieties from lanuary to 
April, n is in a somewhat moist soil which has been trenched deeply that the Ranunculus does best, but any good 
loamy soil, which has been properly prepared, will do. When the soil works kindly, and the day is dry, draw 
anils two inches deep, and five or six inches apart ; at the bottom of the drill sprinkle a little sand, press the 
luDers (irmly into the soil, claws downwards, and cover with sand, then with soil, keeping the crown of the tuber 
two inches under the surface. Cover the early plantings with dry litter, leaves, or old tan during severe weather, 
ana this remove before the foliage in Spring gets injured. In April and May, during dry weather, water the beds 
e y wo or three times a week, and when the flower-buds appear ; water if necessary daily, and continue doing 
so while the plants are blooming, taking every care not to wet the foliage if possible.

TURCO-PERSIAN NEW LARGE-FLOWERING RANUNCULUS. 
This new race of Ranunculus is remarkable for a vigorous growth, and is extraordinarily floriferous ; 
the plants attain a height of about 18 inches, and produce from io to 15 blossoms. 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 imparing the display.

THE ANEMONE, OR WINDFLOWER. 
Culture, Any good soil, moderately well drained, suits the Anemone. In its native habitat it grows 
mostly in vineyards and oliyeyards, where it is partially protected from the sun’s rays and parching winds, the 
most potent enemies of Spring flowers. Plant in succession from August to May, the roots four to six inches 
apart, and at a depth of two to three inches j this should be done when the ground is in good working 
condition and on a dry day. The planting for Summer and Autumn-flowering must be in a situation where 
the ground is moist, and in shade from ioorn a.m.
