MAGNIFICENT NEW VARIETIES 
OF 
SEEIDILillSrO- COLEUS. 
has raised by careful hybridisation upwards of one hundred 
and fifty beautiful new varieties of this exceedingly useful 
and ornamental tribe. 
A dozen splendid and distinct varieties have been selected, and will be sent out 
for the first time in July next, price 4 guineas for the dozen. 
These new Coleus are of the most diversified character. In some 
the leaves are so strikingly cut or serrated that it gives them a fringed 
appearance, while, in contrast to this, others are almost smooth ; 
the colours are of the richest description, embracing in the different 
varieties many shades of glowing red and rich dark crimson, some shot 
with purple on a rosy leaf, others blotched with crimson on a green 
ground, while others, again, have green leaves margined with crimson, 
and, vice versa, crimson margined with green, and some are blotched 
with crimson on an olive ground. The leaves of some of the varieties 
are quite flat, while others are of the old Verschaffelti shape. They 
present a great variety in the colour of the stems, being respectively 
green, crimson, and purple. 
The utility of the Coleus is so well known for ornamental purposes, 
whether for bedding or decorations where coloured-leaved plants are 
desired, they are grown so easily, and make such fine specimens in so 
short a time, that the merit of the varieties now offered can scarcely 
be over estimated. 
Mr. William Bull will be happy to show these new hybrid Coleus 
to visitors to his establishment.
