65°, it continues flowering through the summer and autumn months. Is. 6d. and 2s. 6d. per

f) TORENIA FOURNIERI. — A most charming half-hardy annual, bearing large sky-blue 
flowers, with three spots of a dark indigo blue and a bright yellow stain in the centre. Sown 
from February to April in pots, and kept under glass it will flower profusely from June to Sep- 
tember, or it will thrive equally well if planted out in the summer months in the open ground ; 
it is an exceedingly pretty and most useful plant, very easily propagated from cuttings in the 
shade and under bell glasses, in eight days it is rooted; by taking flowering cuttings very 
pretty pot or pan-fuls may be had for succession, as it will root and not discontinue to flower ; 
all the joints root in the earth by fastening them down with a peg ; being of such easy growth 
and free-flowering habit this interesting plant cannot fail to become a popular favourite. 
Is. 6d. per packet.
