Extract from the Oardeners' Chronicle, 
We have just received from H. Cannell & Sons, of Swanley, Kent, samples of Petunia 
flowers of a remarkably fine strain, selected fi’om a bank of flowers occupying a house 
100 feet long, which we have since seen. The flowers are generally very large, some 
beautifully striped in a great variety of patterns, some of the richest velvety crlmsoiu 
One variety was specially noticeable, and to us entirely novel and particularly fine. ” 
r. * groins' to press we have received a box of Blooms of Single Petunias 
n-om Messrs. Cannell & Sons, Swanley, Kent, which for size, richness of colour;, and 
^rity of markings, surpass all that have previously come under our notice . — Journal of 
JiorUcuUure. 
From J. AVilson Behell, Esq., Albert Hou.se, Clifton, July ISth, 1882.

admired by all that has seen them.
