NEW PLANTS. 
NEW IVY-LEAVED PELARGONIUMS. 
» PBLARGONItTM LATERIPES.” 
Extract from the Gardeners' Chronicle ; — 
“Mr. Bull Las sent us a very interesting set of blooms of seedlings of Ivy-leaved Pelargoniums, 
some of wliich will be acquisitions for the purposes to which those plants are adapted. They vary 
in tint from blush white, through many shades, to deep bright rosy lilac, and are sometimes marked 
with a bar or flame only along the base of the veins of the upper petals, sometimes with a bright 
spot in addition. Wo have here an indication that the Ivy-leaved section is likely to become an 
extensive one — a matter of congratulation, seeing that the plants are useful in many ways for 
decorative gardening, especially for cultivation in vases and suspended flower baskets.”

NEW HERBACEOUS LOBELIAS. 
The two following varieties are strongly recommondod on account of their unusually dwarf 
compact growth, and the profusion with which they produce their line spikes of bloom. They are 
well adapted for large beds, or in groups for the decoration of the border or shrubbery, and when so 
planted have a striking effect, for the freedom with which they flower, and their neat shrubby habit 
(never hardly exceeding one foot in height), renders them highly attractive.

per dozen. 
MARVEL, puce, with light centre, an exceedingly attractive and well-formed flower. 3^. Gd. each,
