II. ii. A. Nieotiana Colossea — Amongst ornamental foliaged 
plants coming to periection the first season from being sown this 
ranks foremost. It is an annual (perennial when grown under glass), 
attaining a height of 5 to G ft. in the open ground. The leaves, of about 
3 ft. in length by 18 to 20 ins. in breadth, are erect at first, gracefully 
bending down successively. When young they are downy and of a reddish 
tint, changing to a glossy dark green later on, this lovely green contrasting 
beautifully with the reddish-brown ribs. The plants being of branching 
habit and of robust growth, and the leaves being very tough, are never 
damaged by wind or rain. It is well adapted for snb-tropical gardening, 
either as single specimens or for groups, with other ornamental-leaved 
plants. Is per pkt.

h.h.a. Nieotiana Victoria Afflnis ( Solanacece ), Tobacco— This is 
a most extraordinary plant: lstly, because it is a Tobacco plant, and yet 
so different, both in growth and flowers, to the ordinary kind; 2ndly, 
because of its producing such splendid pure white noble flowers on long 
terminal tubes, with such a delicious scent ; 3rdly, when its gigantic white 
Bouvardia-like flowers are fully expanded in the evening and early morning 
it has a most striking effect, and perfumes the whole surrounding atmosphere. 
It is, beyond doubt, the greatest novelty of the garden. In our nursery it 
has been the amazement of all, and the result of several hundreds of packets 
of seeds being sold. Very free ; and only attaining the height of 2£ ft. in
