CARTERS INVINCIBLE PRIZE GLOXINIA. 
Hints on Culture .— Sow in well-drained pans from January to 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 deg., 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.

that no flower for exhibition produces a greater effect than a first-class group of Gloxinias. 
4140 Carters Cyclops. -This is one of the largest and strongest 
growing Gloxinias in commerce. The base of the throat is 
cream, heavily spotted, whilst the upper portion is of intense 
scarlet, passing to a soft pink, and ultimately leaving a wide 
margin of the purest white at the edge of each lobe. 
It may be asserted without fear of contradiction 
4135 Carters Giant Carmine.— A choice colour in Gloxinias, 
the edges of the blooms being of a light carmine, gradually 
shading to a deeper tone towards the throat. The habit is 
robust and erect. 
4136 Carters Giant Purple.— A strong grower, carrying flowers 
of immense sire. In colour it is a deep- velvety purple, with a 
slightly spotted throat. 
4137 Carters Giant Scarlet.— A very vivid scarlet variety, which 
comes quite true from seed. The flowers are of good size and 
texture. 
4138 Carters Giant White.— We consider this the best white yet 
raised. The size of the flowers, the purity of its colour, and its 
robust habit leave nothing to be desired. The flowers, although 
large, are held erect on exceptionally strong stems.

therefore, divided them into three sections, and trust this will assist our customers in making their selections. All varieties may be sown in
