WALLFLOWERS. 
(.SV^ Coloured Plate, page 227.) 
The Wallflower is a very old friend in English gardens, but is not grown to the extent it deserves. Now 
that so many improved forms and bright colours are available, it should be found a place where any collections 
of spring-flowering plants are brought together. For quite two months, April and iVIay, it adds its best charms, 
and makes beds and borders quite checiy by its presence and fragrance. The spindly straggling plants too 
commonly met with are only a mere apology for the effects well-cultivated examples, such as the followirig 
highly selected strains, are capable of achieving. The double varieties, although very pretty when well grown, do 
not always come up to the high slandaid anticipated, and only occasionally give that real solid satisfaction 
that can be relied upon with the singles. For real usefulness we recommend the following selections of uniform 
height and habit, broad petallcd, and decisive colours. They flower early, last well, and are off the grouiid in 
convenient lime for summer bedding. The seeds may be sown from April to August in a partially shaded but 
airy place. If on poor firm soil it will produce plants of stubby growth and hardy nature, whilst those sown latei 
on in rich ground arc often killed in winter. All may be transplanted to blooming quarters from August to 
November, according to circumstances.
