10. Grand Duke. —This variety is a great improvement on Universal; 
it has smaller leaves than in that sort, and has also the largest and closest 
corolla of any Fuchsia known ; it is, moreover, of free-flowering habit. 
11. King of the Doubles. —This new sort is described by Mr. Cannell as a 
grand plant for exhibition, the habit being remarkably good. It has a dark 
scarlet tube and sepals, the latter broad and beautifully reflexed, and the 
corolla is very large and long, of a rich purple, distinctly striped with red. 
12. Rifleman. —An excellent sort similar in character to Sir C. Campbell, 
hut far superior in every way. 
Single Scarlet Fuchsias with White Corolla. 
13. Conspicua. —This is a first-class show kind and the best for exhibi¬ 
tion. It is a good bloomer; the habit, moreover, is very much improved 
when the plant is two or three years old. 
14. Mrs. Gladstone. —The free-blooming habit, fine large bold flowers, 
and perfect shape of this variety, place it in advance of all others in its 
class. The tube and sepals are bright waxy scarlet, the latter very broad 
and reflexed, equal to the well-known Guiding Star, while the corolla is 
bell-shaped, pure white, with a beautiful scarlet feather. 
15. Puritani. —This has the best habit of any of the kinds with white 
corollas, and is one of the best for small pots, or for the decoration of the 
dinner-table. 
Double Scarlet Fuchsias with White Corolla. 
16. Emperor of Fuchsias. —This is a fine large flower, and although the 
habit is bad when the plant is young, yet when two or three years old it 
very much improves, and then becomes a fine object for the conservatory. 
17. Eva. —A very attractive kind, of good habit; it has well-reflexed 
sepals and a bright waxy scarlet tube. 
18. Vamqueur de Puebla. —This is the best of the varieties with a double 
•white corolla, far superior to Madame Cornelissen. It has fine glossy-green 
foliage, boldly reflexed sepals, and a very large full corolla. It is also a fine 
acquisition for the open garden. 
Single White Fuchsias with Scarlet or Pink Corolla. 
19. Catherine Parr. —A model variety, excellent in habit, and a free 
bloomer; indeed one of the best of its class. It has a white tube and 
sepals, the latter well reflexed and of great substance, and a cup-shaped 
corolla of a rich scarlet-tinted rose. It is considered a great improvement 
on Heine Blanche. 
20. Lucy Mills. —A good light variety, after the style of Marginata both 
in habit and bloom, but the flowers are larger and brighter in colour than 
in that variety. The corolla is of a light pink edged with bright rose. 
21. Minnie Banks.- —One of the best light-coloured varieties, and also 
one of the best for exhibition. It has a splendid corolla, and is quite dis¬ 
tinct from any other sort. The sepals are broad and recurved, and the 
corolla cup-shaped, of a clear rich rose. 
22. Rose of Denmark. —This variety should be in every collection, 
whether for exhibition or decoration. The habit is rather strong, but it 
blooms very freely at the points, and is quite distinct from the other light 
varieties. The tube is glossy white, the sepals ivory white, horizontally 
recurved, the corolla cup-shaped, bright pink margined with rose. 
Single White Fuchsias with Purple Corolla. 
23. Lady Heytesbury. —A first-class new Fuchsia, decidedly one of the
