mauve, the shade of colour varying much (as in many dowers) 
on each plant, probably to be attributed to the age of the 
flower. 
As the Petunia is very easily grown and propagated, doubtless 
this beautiful variety will very soon be found in all parts of the 
country, and w T ill form a handsome plant for the decoration of 
conservatories and verandahs when Pelargoniums and other 
flowers are past their prime. There was exhibited at the Koyal 
Botanic show in July, by Mr. Ferguson, of Stowe, a single va¬ 
riety in wdiich each segment of the limb of the flower was 
marked by a distinct stripe down the centre, without any 
other blotching or veining; and this too we have no doubt will 
become a general favourite.
