tliese’ strictly belonjr to the Stella class, aiul are noted for their massive and continual 
blooining, and perhaps no Pelargoniums make more of a glare, or better adapt themselves to 
almost any kind of soil and situation. The following are the best: — 
336. TRIOMPHE DE STELLA— One of 
the finest hedders, stands the sun well; colour 
brilliant orange-scarlet, and j)erfeetly distinct 
from the old Orunye Nosec/ay 
337. STAR OP PIRE — Brilliant orange- 
All those not priced, Grf. 
scarlet, very large trusses, flowers very freely; 
habit very dwarf and compact. 
338. LADY KIRKLAND — Dark rosy pur- 
ple; a reallv fine variety. 
339. INDIAN YELLOW— A very distinct 
colour; a bed of this is very effective. 
each ; 4s. to os. per doz 
SALMON-COLOURED. 
349. LUCY MASON— A new variety for 
hedding.reeeiving a thorough trial last season, and 
proved itself to he an aetpiisition ; colour deep 
reddish salmon, ileeper centre; large. tru.sses, 
freely ])roduced ; habit dwarf. 6s. doz. 
341. SURPRISE (Salmon Vesuvius) — 
Truly, it is a surprise! First, because the old 
Vesuvius continues its eruptions, and next, that 
this sport should produce splendid salmon- 
coloured flowers, and in every other way identical 
with its parent; therefore, alt may rest assured ' 
that we shall not only have beds filled with one 
mass of this much-needed colour, hut also 
abundance of salmon-coloured flowers all the 
winter; a gem. 3.v. per do/,., 20.v. per 100. 
342. LIZARD — Rosy salmon, with a distinct 
bright ring of red; habit very dwarf; novel and 
distinct. 
343. MRS. HOLPORD— Also a new variety 
in this section — deep salmon, ro.sy margin, white 
eye ; very dwarf. 6.v. doz. 
Grf. each ; 3.s. Grf. per doz. 
PINK. 
344. LADY BAILEY— Very deep pink; 
verv effective in the parks during last seiuson. 
346. NEWLAND'S MARY— A better va- 
riety in every respect than the old Master Chris- 
tine, which has hitherto brought forth more 
expression of satisfaction than any other Zonal. 
347. MRS. TURNER — Bright rays of 
purple predominating ; a first-class variety. 
348. MRS. LANCASTER— Clear red-pink ; 
good substance. 
341. MASTER CHRISTINE— Well-known 
general favourite. 
Gil. each ; 3.s-. 6</. per doz. 
DOUBLE-FLOWERED IVY-LEAF PELARGONIUMS. 
a T seems but the other day that there were no double-flowering Ivy-leaf (xeraniums,yct now we have 
I many and more double than a rose, all distinct, and many of them most valuable for cut flowers ; 
few people have an idea, and very few can form the slightest conception, what grand kinds we 
have in this family, and what splendid specimen i)lants they make trained on trellises ; and what is 
more surprising, all, with the cxce])tion of Koniej Albert, have been introduced within this last 
six years, and in fact, no class of plants has made such rapid progress in so short a time. The stands 
of cut blooms exhibited by ns at South Kensington (and awarded the I’remier Prize), and numerous 
other shows, w'cre a marvel for the neiinisitions they contained, including many of the following 
varieties, and were justly termed, “ Novelties of the greatest e.xcelleney.” 
The. umkrmentimed varieties are Ili/hriJs or stroiuj yrowiny kiiuls. 
360. SOUV. DE CHAS. TURNER— A 
wonderful stride in this lovely class, producing 
gigantic trusses 6 to 8 inches across, and id|)S 2| 
to 3 inches over; flowers of a dee]) ])ink shade, 
feathered maroon in ii])])er petals, the finest 
English-raised variety yet introduced. Awarded 
numerous Certificates, l.s. and l.«. lid. each. 
351. GALILEE — A new variety, this being 
the second of this name ; soft rosy pink flowers, 
which are very large and well-formed ; grand 
round trusses, good habit, free bloomer. 2s. 
352. CUVIER — Light magenta; nothing 
ap]>roaching it for colour in this class. Is. fid.
