DWARF NASTURTIUM.— 
Nasturtiums, both climbing and dwarf, are of the easiest culture, and anyone desirous of 
having a display of the most brilliant flowers, without any trouble beyond sowing the seed, should 
select this delightful family, as they will give off their best efforts through the brightest of the 
summer, merely needing the seed-balls picked off. If these are permitted to mature, the beauty 
of the plant is soon lost. 
Although the colours of the dwarf varieties contain many more shades and tints than the 
climbing section, both may be grown near the ground if the situation requires it, but the 
Climbing Nasturtium shows off its best features when climbing over a fence or clambering up 
rustic woodwork. 
Those who recollect the ordinary garden Nasturtium of “ si.xty years since can best 
apiireciate the immense advance we have made in the colour, habit, and beauty of these 
most invaluable adjuncts to every garden ; and we are gratified to think that the greater number 
of new varieties now in cultivation are the result of our own persistent care and attention at our 
Seed Farms in Essex, where in 1858 we raised and exhibited the Scarlet 'I’om Thumb 
variety, and received a certificate for it from the Floral Committee of the Royal Horticultural 
Society. '1 hey make the most elegant of edging plants to floral walks.
