ANNUAL GODETIA, LADY SATIN ROSE. 
COLOUR, CARMINE-ROSE, SHINING LIKE SATIN.

whether grown in groups in the garden or in pots 
in cold frames for ultimate conservatory decoration 
— it is unequalled for brilliancy and general beauty.

was awarded Three First and Two Second Prizes." 
H. E. VINCER, Esq., Middlesex.

A Handsome 
Pot Plant. 
‘ Carters' Empress of India Tropaeolum is a sensation plant. The strange 
metallic purplish blue of the compact leafage and the splendid crimson -scarlet 
of the flowers make a wonderful combination, and the flowers are so freely 
produced, that no other annual in cultivation can approach it in 
effectiveness, and it would be perfectly safe to describe it as the most 
Important annual of recent introduction.*’ 
THE GARDENERS' MAGAZINE. 
“ Nasturtium Empress op India. — A decided improvement upon King of 
Tom Thumbs. The plant is no more titan 6 inches high, very compact and 
bushy, and covered with flowers of a brilliant fiery vermilion, dazzling to 
look upon.”— THE GARDEN. 
“The plant is of dwarf compact habit, like King of Tom Thumbs, with 
dark-tinted foliage, and flowers of a deep but brilliant crimson, many degrees 
deeper and richer than in the variety just named. We know of nothing 
which comes so closely to it in colour as some of the brighter crimson 
forms of Phlox Drummondi. We have no hesitation in saying that, as 
seen by us On this occasion, Tropaeclura Empress of India will rank far 
ahead of anything of the kind which has previously been known."— “ Carters’
