Whether covering a trellis, a vcrindah, or rambling amongst the branches of shrubs, or festooning the 
dgerows, alone, or with other climbers, suck as Tropccolum Cunariense {Canary Creeper'), Clematis, etc., the 
eauty of Convolvulus Major is conspicuous, and the effect of its fresh rick pleasing colours is most charming. In 
floral walks, pyramids of twiggy faggots, covered 7vith Convolvulus, S^veet Peas, and Canary Creeper inter-

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

PETUNIAS. 
The Petunia in the flower garden is an effective plant, blooming profusely till late in. 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 flssures of rock formations, this planU is invaluable.
