FLOWERS HAVING POPULAR NAMES. 
Under this heading we have specified the various flowers under the names by which they are generally known, to which we 
have also affixed the Scientific Names, to show the genus to Which they belong ; and as most of the kinds are of such a nature as 
will with ordinary care succeed in almost any soil or situation, the remarks on culture, soil, &c., will necessarily be brief.
