‘Pbtu'nias. 
S T is surprising this family is not more largely grown, considering how easy they are to cultivate ; 
and if well grown what grand things they are, both for decoration and exhibition ! Treat them 
similarly to a Verbena. Choose nice young plants about March, or any time up to July, give 
them good shifts and rieh soil, well stake out, and you will be highly gratified, for some are certainly 
surprisingly large, and their colours not equalled by any other flower. The finest varieties ever 
offered. Seed saved from this collection. Is. Grf. and 2s. Grf. per packet.
