CONVOLVULUS MAJOR (THE MORNING GLORY). 
The Convolvulus Major is perhaps one of the most attractive objects where climbers arc cultivated. Whether 
on the trellis, the verandah, or rambling amongst the branches of shrubs, or festooning the hedgerows, alone, or 
with other climbers, its beauty is conspicuous, and the effect of its fresh rich pleasing colours is most charming.

LARKSPURS. 
These are universal favourites, and of considerable value in the flower garden. The dwarf varieties are very 
effective in beds and ribbons ; the taller growing kinds are exceedingly decorative in mixed flower and shrubbery 
borders, and to cut for bouquets and vases they are invaluable. On light soils, where plants get burnt up in summer, 
we recommend that these be sown in autumn ; so treated they will bloom throughout the whole summer in spite of 
the severest drought, and cut flowers may be gathered freely from them the whole of the season.

PETUNIAS. 
The Petunia in the flower garden, is one of the most effective of plants, blooming profusely till far on in the 
autumn. When planted in large beds it should be trained over a frame-work of boughs ; and in the flower borders, 
against twiggy faggots. But perhaps the plant is most telling in effect when trained against a rustic fence, on 
espaliers, or against a wall. In rustic baskets on the lawn, for rockwork, or elevated situations, where plants 
are required to droop over, as in the fissures of rock formations, this plant is invaluable.
