686. II. n. Clematis Davidiana — This fine Chinese Clematis is seldom 
offered as seeds as they do not often ripen in this country. It is remarkable 
among the non-climbing species for its sweet-scented blue flowers, and for 
the fragrance of its foliage when dried. The flowers give out on applica- 
tion a Jasmine-like fragrance peculiar to the species. As the summer 
wanes, and the foliage assumes a russet tint, it emits so powerful an odour of 
new hay from the development of coumarin that the attention of the passer- 
by is strongly attracted ; the dried foliage retains this scent for a 
considerable time. 3 to 4 feet. Per pkt.. Is. Gd. 
587. H.H.p. Cllanthus Dampieri {I^uminosre), Glory Pea of 
Australia — Sow in April, in heat, and after attaining the height of three 
inches, expose to all the light and snn in a temperature of 60 to 70°. 
It likes rather poor gravelly or sandy soil. Seeds should be soaked in 
water till they swell, and then be covered with a quarter of an inch or less 
of sandy soil, and pressed down with the hand. Sow where it is wanted to 
grow, as the young plants do not like being shifted. 4 ft. Is. and Is. Gd.

503. o.A. Cannells’ New Hybrid Cockscombs 
(Celosia eristata) amarantacea;. 
The many thousands who honoured ns with a visit .last Summer will 
acknowledge that one of our 100-feet houses, filled with Cockscombs, 
contained the most magnificent lot of this family ever seen in England. 
Hitherto, one or two colours has been the extent of the varieties, whereas 
we have now a dozen distinct colours. All are of rich satiny colour, such 
as bring forth the expression, “Had 1 not seen these I could not have 
believed they would have caused such a glare.” Many had perfectly arched 
heads more than two feet over, and every seed is from those which had 
combs quite equal to the engraving. Mixed, 2s. Gd. per pkt, ; smaller.
