ROUND-FLOWERING ZONAL PELARGONIUMS. 
SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR POT CULTURE. 
PpIIE Zomil Pelargonium is beccm- 
ing more and more popular every 
day; vidt reports in and around 
I.ondon of the stands of magnificent 
blooms that we have shown thronghenf 
the year, the autumn and winter in 
particular. Several 100-fect houses 
are filled with Pelargoniums alwaj’S in 
flower, and many are so grand in the 
winter that they are nnrecognisnhlo 
even by the raiser; in fact, no oilier 
flower — not even the Eo.se — can fern 
moment he com]iared with our stand of 
trus.ses, many of the pips measuring 
2 to ;i inches over, and ns round as 
the engraving, and in seme instances 
lietter. This may appear incredildc, 
hut whoever questions this are respect- 
fully invited to Swanley, no matter 
the season. To keep plants in good 
blooming condition throughout tlie 
year, all that is necessary is to keep 
two'or three sets potted, say in March, 
July, and September, in good rich soil, 
with a plentiful sujiply of water, taking 
out the points of all strong-growing 
shoots, thus throwing the whtle 
strength into the truss. 
We are glad to say that immense 
strides continue to he made in this 
class
