[ December 25, 1830, 
congratulated the Association on the good state of affairs. This was 
seconded by Mr. Barnes, and carried with loud applause. Mr. John 
Banks Chapman, an enthusiastic grower of the “ Golden Flower,” 
related in a humorous speech his first season’s experience as a 
Chrysanthemum exhibitor. The remainder of the evening was spent 
in a convivial manner, a paper by Mr. Charles Gibson (one of the 
Judges) on “The Growth of Chrysanthemums,” being reserved for a 
future occasion. 
Cektificated Chrysanthemums, 1859 to 1890. 
In the following list, which I commenced compiling for my “ Chrys¬ 
anthemum Annual ” several years since, the names are given of the 
Chrysanthemums certificated by the Royal Horticultural Society, the 
National Chrysanthemum Society, and of some of the leading exhibi¬ 
tions like Kingston, the Crystal Palace, &c. The names of persons 
indicate those to whom the certificates were awarded. The Floral 
Committee of the Royal Horticultural Society commenced its duties in 
1859 ; but though the Floral Committee of the National Chrysanthe¬ 
mum Society was only instituted recently, the novelties submitted to 
the latter body, and honoured by certificates, have been comparatively 
much more numerous. Many varieties have been certificated at local 
shows, of which no record could be obtained. It has been thought 
preferable to give the full alphabetical list first, and follow with general 
comments and descriptions. This course has therefore been adopted, 
and will be convenient in regard to the fact that many of the varieties 
certificated a quarter of a century ago are now out of cultivation. I 
shall be glad to receive any historical or other notes concerning the 
varieties named in the list as it appears, to be incorporated in the sub¬ 
sequent comments.— Lewis Castle.
