1845 Forget-Me-Not, Cliveden rose Myosotis sylvatica rosea, a charming addition 
and a fine associate to the white and blue variety — 
1846 Forget-Me-Not, myosotis dissitiflora or montana, a charming species, in bloom 
from February onwards. Messrs. Fish, Atkins, and other authorities assert it 
to be the finest of the Forget-Me-Nots ; it is larger in flower and dwarfer 
in habit than the Sylvatica ; but, in our opinion, it is not so useful where a 
striking effect is desired. For its large flowers, early blooming, and other 
good qualities weatirongly recommend it ........

1853 Pansy, Cliveden new dark bright blue perpetual flowering ; this exceedingly 
beautiful variety occupies the same place in the spring flower garden as the 
dark Lobelia speoiosa does in its association with summer-blooming plants ... 
1854 Pansy, Cliveden purple perpetual flowering, very rich, an exceedingly effective 
variety, forming a fine contrast with the White Daisy, &c. 
1855 Pansy, Cliveden white perpetual flowering, very effective in beds and edgings, 
or associated with the other colours of the Pansy - 
1856 Pansy, Cliveden white porcelain-shaded perpetual flowering; an exceedingly 
free-flowering variety, throwing its large bold flowers well above the foliage, 
and blooming at a lower temperature than the other varieties 
1857 Pansy, Cliveden yellow perpetual flowering. A good yellow colour is a great 
desideratum in the flower garden, and the want of a yellow plant which 
can be depended upon has been much felt. This want the Cliveden yellow 
Pansy supplies in the summer as well as in the spring flower garden. Late 
autumn or spring-struck cuttings are best for the summer flower garden ; a 
little attention during summer should be given to the plants by placing round 
them some nice rich soil to encourage free growth, and in very dry weather 
they should be occasionally watered. With such treatment in our experi- 
mental gTound we have had all the Cliveden Pansies constantly in full bloom
