TWO NEW LATE-FLOWERING VARIETIES. 
YELLOW ETHEL, or NEW YEAR’S DAY (Edwards’ variety)— Up to the present, no 
variety has proved more valuable and useful for the festive sea.son as the white, the parent of the

except colour, which is a bright yellow of a higher tone of colour than other similar sports.

best and most valuable for cutting at the shortest and New Year’s Days ever offered. Is. Crf. each.
