JOURNAL OF HORTICULTURE AND COTTAGE GARDENER 
[ May 6, 1886 
^’Orleans, reddish-purple ; Anna Pfitzer, salmon-rose; and Madame Crousse, 
blush white shaded rose. Of Chrysanthemums there is a full collection of 
all the leading varieties, and three houses 40 feet by 10 feet are devoted to 
Carnations and Picotms, of which the collection contains most of the best 
old and new varieties. Hydrangea cyanoclada has large trusses of blue 
flowers or bracts, there being no need to supply H. hortensis with iron filings 
to get blue flower heads now we have this. 
Perns of the decorative character, such as Adiantum cuneatum, gracilli- 
num, Williamsi, palmatum, fine ; deflexum, with the pinnae hanging or 
flaccid; scutum and podophyllum, having pink fronds in their young state ; 
and mundulum; farleyense being grown extensively. The very finely 
divided Pteris scaberula is much in request for decorative purposes, and 
similar remarks apply to Davalla bullata. Of the bolder sorts Asplenium 
bnlbiferum, Doodia aspera, and Neottopteris Nidus obtain most favour. 
That best of Silver Ferns, Gymnogramma peruviana argyiophylla, is fine. 
In a large house 66 feet by 25 feet Coboea scandens variegata in strong 
plants and number suggests the great value of this as a rapid climber for 
■cool or unheated houses, it covering a large space in a season ; and also for 
verandahs, balconies, running round windows outside, it is most useful, and 
in some respects invaluable. Part of the roof is covered with Marecbal 
Niel Hose worked on Reve d’Or, on which it does better than on the 
Briar stock, being healthier, and the flowers are much larger, the buds 
resembling miniature Cabbages. Of Tree Carnations the best were 
A. AJdgatiere, scarlet: Duke of Wellington, purple; Zouave, red, fine; 
Louisa Ashburton, white, fringed, very fragrant; Miss Joliffe, pink; 
Warrior, scarlet; Worthington Smith, scarlet; La Belle, white ; Andalusia, 
primrose-yellow; Pride of Penshurst, canary yellow, are amongst the best. 
.Greenhouse Rhododendrons in their varied colours and delightful fragrance, 
with plants in 3 and 4-inch pots of Choisya ternata about a foot high were 
flowering profusely. A large deep pan contains that charming sweet 
Hawthorn-scented aquatic Aponogeton distachyon growing beneath the 
stage, and yet full of flowers and foliage. For growing in deep pans 
indoors, and tanks outdoors where it has a foot to 18 inches depth of water, 
it is one of the most desirable of aquatics. A few other notes must be 
reserved.—G.

THE PRIMULAS. 
C Continued from page 31S .) 
To conclude the notes upon the Primulas which have been 
published in this Journal during the past few months, a list of the 
•species and principal synonyms is given, with references to the page 
upon which will be found a note describing their characters or 
culture. The names in italics are synonyms, those with asterisks 
prefixed being hybrids.
