CROWN IMPERIALS. 
Stately border plants, producing in spring effective clusters of pendent bell-shaped flowers, which are sur- 
mounted by characteristic tufts of fresh green leaves. These are especially adapted for shrubbery borders and 
outlying situations, where early-flowering plants of stately growth are required. They succeed in almost any 
soil and situation, but thrive best in loam.

FRITILLARIAS. 
The varieties of F. Meleagris have singularly marbled pendent bell-shaped flowers. They are effective in flower 
borders and shrubberies, and are valuable for naturalization in ornamental parks and woodland walks. Persica is 
almost as stately as the Crown Imperial ; its bluish-green foliage, and small, dusky, pendent, bell-shaped 
flowers impart to it a very distinctive character, which is greatly prized in flower borders. Pyrenaica, like 
Meleagris, is dwarf, with smaller flowers and less chequered. Kamschatkensis is the Sarana Kamschatkense, 
the Lilium Kamschatkense and the Black Lily ; it is a dwarf plant, and the flowers are very remarkable. All the 
Fritillarias grow freely in any ordinary garden soil.

SCILLA. 
The “ Wood Hyacinth,” Scilla nutans, Cemua, and the Spanish forms, Patula and Campanulata, commence 
flowering in April and continue throughout May. They delight to exhibit their beauties in somewhat shady 
situations, such as Rhododendron beds, shrubbery borders, woodland walks, and positions where they can remain 
undisturbed. All the varieties of Campanulata arc deserving of cultivation for conservatory decoration, and as 
cut flowers for furnishing vases, they should be largely grown. Campanulata maxima has flowers almost as large 
as a Dutch hyacinth. 
Those who are desirous of naturalizing in their woods and woodland walks the better class of the “ Wood 
Hyacinth," can have special offers of Scilla Campanulata by the 1000 .

Peruviana and Ciliaris flower in Summer, and plants when established produce immense heads of bloom. 
Japonica and Autumnalis flower in August, and established masses of these at that season make one feel as 
if they were at the Alpha, instead of approaching the Omega of the flower period.

■ MUSCARI. 
M. botryoides is the Grape Hyacinth, remarkable for its dwarf growth and neat compact flower spikes ; the dark 
blue, clear pearl blue, and pure white varieties, strikingly contrast with each other. M. racemosum is the Starch 
Hyacinth , it flowers at the same time and much resembles M. botryoides, but the individual flowers are larger, 
and more numerous on the spike, while the foliage is recumbent and more ample ; Pollens is less dense in colour, 
a trifle dwarfer, and forms a fine contrast to the darker species. Both Botryoides, Racemosum and their varieties
