NEW PLANTS. 
which entails much regret, is, lest any thoroughly deserving va¬ 
riety should pass unnoticed through the inadvertence of its owner, 
in refraining from publishing its whereabouts. No trouble of 
our own, however, shall militate in this respect, and we confi¬ 
dently hope for the cooperation of parties concerned. Our remarks 
will in future be continued in a seasonal manner, though, from 
the present advanced state of the buying season, we can do little

Verbenas will this month be required for bedding and other 
purposes; and, from the multiplicity of those offered, much care 
is necessary to select distinct and really desirable kinds. Of 
those we know to be coming out, the following are decidedly

Smith" 1 s Emperor. Crimson, with a clear white centre ; the 
flowers large and well formed, and of good substance. 
Smith’s Due de Nemours. Bright rose colour, with yellow

being several shades lighter forms a distinct edge. 
Smith’s Duchess of Sutherland. A first-class flower, with large, 
well-formed florets and truss ; the colour a pleasing bright blush, 
with a glossy rose-coloured centre. 
Smith’s Modesta. A cream-coloured flower, spotted over with

Miller’s Comet. Clear flesh-colour, with pink centre; the 
outline both of the florets and of the whole head is very good. 
Miller’s Samye. A beautiful and distinct flower; rich pink, 
finely shown up by the dark, purplish crimson of the centre, good 
form and fine trusser. 
This half dozen may be advantageously added even to the best. 
Dahlias must be had this month, in order to get them into

The following should be grown by all who desire to maintain a 
perfect collection:—Keynes, Sir Edmund Antrobus, Edward’s
