EARLY-FLOWERING CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
g feARLY flowering Chrysanthemums are making rapid improvement ; we now give them more 
§ attention and grow them better. Our house, after the Carnations and Picotees were removed, 
and during August and September, was really a fine sight. It cannot be said we have nothing 
but Dahlias in the autumn, for these can be had in abundance ; yes, for many continue throwing up 
flowers after the first lot are cut — so very different to the ordinary November kinds, and for bedding 
many of the varieties make a grand feature. Mr. Brown, the Superintendent, Hyde Park 
Gardens, writes us : — “ Madame C. Desgrange has again made the most attractive bed in the Gardens 
this season, and these are fast becoming a most important section of this family, but like all Chrysan- 
themums they require to be well grown, otherwise they will end in disappointment.”
