CACTI. 
We have pleasure in submitting to the notice of our customers these curious, beautiful and easily cultivated plants, which 
if better known would be universally grown; the singularly grotesque form and gorgeous beauty of many of the varieties 
render them objects of striking attractiveness, and their peculiarities contrast admirably with the other kinds of Greenhouse 
and Stove plants. Nearly all the varieties thrive well on out-of-the-way shelves, in places where other plants would be burnt 
up requiring but little attention ; one removal in the course of the season, into a mixture of old spent loam ; very old mortar 
anil brick rubbish is highly advantageous; very little water is required, except when they are making their young growth. 
Our selection of good varieties 9 s. f 12s. and 24s. per dozen. 
ORCHIDS. 
We have cultivated a very fine collection of Orchids, but as the price depends so much upon the size of the plants, we (lid 
not think it advisable to give a detailed price-list, but shall be happy to send the prices of any sorts upon application. We 
can offer J2 g OOC j anc j distinct varieties, our selection, from £5 to £12.
