SHINK-A-GARIBI.— We are putting this variety forward, knowing that it will l>e found a 
most useful free-flowering kind for market or cutting purposes, it being almost the same fashionable 
colour, which has been so much in request, as Col. IK. 1!. Smith, but of a much stronger constitution, 
and more lasting properties in the ilowers. This alone will cause it to be generally grown where a 
quantity of bloom is required of a golden bronze and terra-cotta colour. Is. 6 d.

BOUTONNIERE, AESTHETIC AND SPIDERY 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
Where reiiuement in decorations is desired those will now take the place of the Pompon and 
single-flowered varieties, and will undoubtedly occupy a position in Chrysanthemums similar to the 
Cactus-shaped kinds in Dahlias, which have gained such well-merited popularity throughout the 
world. It is our full conviction that these light, graceful, and fantastic shaped Chrysanthemums 
will attain a prominent position in even a much shorter time, and owing to their lasting properties 
when cut, which is a great advantage, they will be eagerly sought after and used by every lady who 
admires something neat and nice for tile decoration of the table. For buttonholes and sprays they are 
even a worthy rival to the Orchid, both in appearance and keeping qualities; no garden or greenhouse 
ought to be without them, See opinions of the gardening papers and the Press.

NEW SINGLE CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
MISS ANNIE HOLDEN (YELLOW MARY ANDERSON)— The much admired 
blush-white variety sent out by us several years ago, being so beautiful and perfect in formation, loft 
nothing to be desired, and all lovers of this class speak and write of it as being the very best of its 
kind. The above new variety we now have the pleasure of introducing is a sport, and in every way 
identical, except in colour, which is of a lovely canary-yellow, and it will thus readily he seen what a 
gem this will prove to be to all who delight in home decoration. 3s. 
THE ECHO The single varieties have been much neglected during the past few years, they are 
certainly deserving of more general notice and cultivation. The variety mimed Miss Hose, sent out by 
us several years ago, is constantly being mentioned in the gardening papers as a most useful anil 
necessary kind for the conservatory, owing to it forming into such beautifully shaped specimens, and 
well covered with Mowers. The novelty we now oFer is equally as effective, but producing flowers of 
a distinct shade of terra cotta ; medium size flowers ; dwarf, bushy habit. 2?.

Kentish White will give much disappointment if it fails to make one of the freest and best 
of the white 1 ncurved Japanese. 
Extract from THE GARDENERS’ MAGAZINE, November 24th, 1894. 
Si'idkky Chrysanthemums. — At the Meeting of the Royal Horticultural Society on the 
13th inst., Messrs. H. Canncll k Sons submitted three Chrysanthemums which by reason of 
their distinct character and elegant appearance attracted much attention, and were regarded 
with considerable favour by the Royal Committee. The three varieties are most useful 
additions to the type with spidery blooms of which J. Carter was the forerunner, and, like that 
variety, ot considerable value for button-boles, hand bouquets, decorative purposes generally 
that require small light flowers.
