NEW SPOTTED PELARGONIUMS. 
These have been obtained by carefully hybridising the attractive French kinds 
with the best varieties of the most eminent English raisers, so that while possessing 
the rich and varied colours of the French sorts, combined TOth their i m mensely free-

the advantage of having the spots more clearly and pm'ely defined than is usually the
