Ours is tie fiuest and choicest collection in England. 
An our opinion these rank second to no other flowers for noble form and beauty. Our three 
1 100- feet houses in June, July, and August are really a magnificent sight, and many have said 
1 “Well, this is atone worth our journey.” Pot them into any ordinary good soil, and if kept 
^ close in a temperature of 66“ to 70°, well shaded from all sunlight, and treated in the same 
way as warm greenhouse plants — free from cold draughts, and liquid manure once a week — the 
result will be a grand sight. A 2s. Gd. packet of our seed sown in January to May will give a 
splendid display. 
Selections left to H. C. & Sons will be supplied at 12s., 15s., 18s., 24s., and 30s. per doz. ; 
choice new varieties, 42s. doz. ; unbloomed Seedlings, 5s. and 9s. per doz. 
Our Exhibit at the Great Tempie Show was acknowledged to be the finest 
ever seen in London.
