S.P. TYDAEA HYBRID A NANA — The 
culture of the natural order Uesneriacece has been 
a speciality of our establishment for a number of 
years, and our seedlings of Gloxinias, etc., com- 
prise the finest and most beautiful varieties 
existing in this genus. The Tydseas cultivated 
ap to the present time have the disadvantage to 
grow to the height of 1$ to 2 feet and more before 
they form their flower stems, while the new class 
is of dwarf growth, attaining only a height of 6 
to 9 inches when in full bloom, bciug very free 
flowering and varying in the same magnificent 
colours and strains as the tall sorts. Its very 
dwarf habit renders it very valuable, being 
equally as pretty as Gloxinias, and if sown early 
and potted forward these gay and effective 
varieties will also bloom the same season and at 
the same time. Constant from seed it is a 
novelty ®f great merit. Is. (id. per pkt.
