LOVERS OF FOLIAGE PLANTS SHOULD SEE OUR CALADIUMS. 
Calceolarias— Herbaceous. 
Clibrans’ “Gold Medal” Strain. 
Awarded numerous Medals at various Shows during the last 
few years. 
Our “ Gold Medal” strain of Herbaceous Calceolarias is unsurpassed. The plants are of a 
dwarf and vigorous strain, flowers large in a wide range of colours, from pure .seifs to the most finely- 
spotted and blotched forms. Wherever exhibited, our strain has met with the most unqualified 
approval. Visitors to our Nursery during the tlowcring sea.son have been astonished by the mag- 
nificent display of this favourite flower. Their cultivation is simple. mixture of equal parts 
fibrous loam, manure, and leaf soil, with sufficient sand to keep the whole open, is the best compost. 
On account of the structure of the roots, ramming the compost ought to be carefully avoided, as 
they should be somewhat lightly potted at all stages. Good drainage is essential, and attention 
should be given to watering ; they must not be allowed to get dry.
