CANNELLS' STANDARD-TRAINED SINGLE ZONAL 
PELARGONIUMS 
OK several years past these have been a special feature in our nursery, and have now a fine 
and varied selection of colours. We know of no other plant to equal them for producing such 
a brilliant effect throughout the winter months, their value for decorative purposes being 
unsurpassed. They seem peculiarly well adapted for this form of growth, and it is surprising the 
quimtity of flowers they produce, and the length of time they continue in good condition. Amongst 
the many advantages they possess may he mentioned that, owing to their height, and being nearer 
to the glass and light, which materially aids to their perfect development and well being, they allow 
of other plants being cultivated uiiderneuth and around them, thus utilising the space which would 
otherwise be wasted. For the decoration of the conservatory, corridors, and other similar positions, 
Standard-trained Zonal Pelargoniums particularly commend themselves. It will be found advan- 
tageous about the latter part of May, or beginning of June, to plant ihcm outdoors. They should 
be provided with a strong bamboo cane, and securely tied, knocking them out of the pots and placing 
them in the borders and centre of beds, and treating and using them in the same way as Standard 
Roses — in fact, for a continuity of fiowi-rs during the whole season they are far preferable to Standard 
Roses. Needless to say an occasional watering of liquid manure would materially add to their 
vigour and floral effects. On the approach of the late autumn they should be dug up, re-potted in 
suitable size pots, if necessary trim the heads into good shape, then remove them to greenhouse for 
the winter season, where they will again do good service and delight all beholders. Our collection 
is always much admired during the season.
