EUCODONIAS. 
A free flowering and dwarf growing section of Gesneraceous plants, with attractive- 
flowers intermediate between Tydreas and Gloxinias. Is. and Is. 6d. each. 
GESNERAS (N^GELIAS). 
The value of Gesneras as decorative plants can scarcely be over estimated. Most 
of them have rich velvet-like foliage, which, in the respective kinds, varies from green 
to crimson. If only grown for the foliage they are very attractive, but they produce 
splendid pyramidal spikes of blossom, which are extremely handsome. Originally, 
however, the principal colour was orange-scarlet ; now, as the result of fertilisation, 
there are various colours and shades, added to which the spotting on the flowers of 
some of the varieties is extremely pretty. Selections of good varieties at 80s. and 
42s. per dozen.
