" I had a 5s. packet of your Gloxinia, this summer, and have got over 400 plants in " 60” pots, and sev^al showing for bloom 
I should almost think this is as many as anyone could get from such a small quantity of seed. —Mr. W. Cahill, tast Ham, 
Sow in well-drained pans from January to March (or m the autumn), fill the pans with soil 
consisting of a mixture of half peat and half leaf mould, with a small quantity of pulverised chwcoal and silver 
sand sifted very fine, to within half an inch of the rim ; water with fine rose, then sow the seed thinly, taking care 
not to cover it with soil ; place in a temperature of 75 deg., and cover the pans with a piece of shaded glass, 
gradually removing the same as the seedlings progress. When large enough to handle, prick off into pans at 
about one inch apart, then pot off into single pots. Many will soon attain the requisite strength to go into 5-mch 
or 48 pots, and will bloom in August and September of the same year. The pottmg-ofl soil should consist of 
one-half good loam, one-half fibrous peat, with a good sprinkling of sand and broken charcoal.
