We have many thousands of seedlings, some are most promising, and 
should the season be favourable we hope to have by far the best show 
ever seen, extending over a quai-ter of an acre, of all the choicest in 
cultivation, which cannot fail to be highly interesting all through the 
spring. Seed, Is. per packet. 
Bloomed Seedlings, and, with the exception of some being pin-eyed, 
nearly equal to many of the named kinds, 3s. to 6s. per dozen. 
Ordinary bedding kinds, 2s. 6d. per dozen. 
The difl'erence between Oxlips and Cowslips is, the former hold their 
'blooms more ei’ect, and the latter drooping.
