CARTERS TESTED SEEDS— BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS. 
GLOXINIA] 
/'l AVI |\| I A Sow in well-drained pans from January to 
** 1 March (or in the autumn), fill the pans with 
soil consisting of a mixture of half peat and half leaf mould, 
with a small quantity of pulverised charcoal and silver sand 
sifted very fine, to within half an inch of the rim ; water with 
fine rose, then sow the seed thinly, taking care not to cover it 
with soil ; place in a temperature of 75 degs., and cover the pans 
with a piece of shaded glass, gradually removing the same as 
the seedlings progress. When large enough to handle, prick off 
into pans at about 1 in. apart, then pot off into single pots. 
Many will soon attain the requisite strength to go into 5-in. or 
48 pots, and will bloom in August and September of the same 
year. The potting-off soil should consist of one-half good loam, 
one-half fibrous peat, with a good sprinkling of sand and broken 
charcoal.

GODETIA. 
In addition to the wide range of shades now 
found in this lovely annual, the plants vary 
greatly in habit. We have therefore divided them into thre .* 
sections, and trust this will assist our customers in making 
their selections. All varieties may be sown in boxes and trans- 
planted, or may be sown direct into the ground. A few are 
excellent for pots.
