SWEET WILLIAM— DANIELS' PRIZE AURICULA-EYED, 
We have givon great attention for several years past to our splendid 
strain of these, which we have much pleasure in offering. The sorts embrace 
a great variety of the choicest Auricula-eyed, margined, seifs, &c., of the 
most brilliant types. The flowers are beautifully formed, of good substance, 
and are almost invariably awarded First Prize wherever exhibited. Sow 
the seeds thinly, in any sheltered place out of doors, in May or early in 
June, and plant out one foot apart in August or September where intended 
to bloom.

The “ Horticultural Advertiser ’’ for July 6th, referring to our 
Strain of Sweet Williams, says : — 
“ The Auricula-Eyed forms are delightful, and represent one of the 
best strains we have seen for years past. The trusses aro good, and most 
of the pips 1} inches in diameter; the rich crimson and purple markings 
leave no opening for criticism by the most exacting florist, being perfectly 
even, and showing no tendency to run into the pure white of the ground 
colour. It is pleasing to find these old-fashioned favourites still receive 
in some quarters the attention they richly merit.” 
From Mr. A. TAYLOR, Dravcott.
