19C miaitriiUS ROEZLII. — a species found by Dr. Roezl in the Sierra Nevada. It is only 
4 inches high, and forms a lovely counterpart to the favourite M. Guprtus, to which, except in 
the colour of its flowers, it bears a great resemblance. Those of the last-named sort are orange 
scarlet, while the flowers of M. RoezUi are of a bright yellow, the throat being prettily dotted with 
red. It is perfectly hardy, and will bear exposure to the sun without injury. Is. 6d. per packet. 
197 MIMULTIS TIGRINTTS AXiBO-SANGITINEUS. — Wliite ground varieties. The flowers of 
this exceedingly distinct and attractive new strain differ in having a white ground, which is 
beautifully blotched and spotted in a diversified manner with rose, carmine, pink, dark and 
light crimson, &c. The telling contrast between the rich varied markings and clear white 
ground, renders those charming flowers extremely effective. Is. 6d. per packet. 
198 MIMTJLTXS TILINGII. — A very hardy species discovered by Dr. Tiling, near Nevada city, in 
the Sierra Nevada of California. It attains the height of 3 feet, and throws up from the roots 
numerous erect branching stems, terminated by flower spikes thickly set with pure golden 
yellow finely-shaped flowers, having the throat closed. The rich bright colour, and the great 
abundance of flowers continuously open at one time, render the xJant an object of great
