where they may receive the morning sun before it becomes too 
hot for them; the subsoil to be well drained, and a compost of 
leafy loam, and well-decayed leaf-mould or peat, in equal parts, 
to be used.”* 
We have had one of the varieties of double Primroses, let 
out by Messrs. Smith, of Dulwich, in bloom for now nearly 
twelve months, and with every prospect of its continuing to 
bloom throughout the winter. This continuous flowering pro¬ 
perty is very important, and considerably adds to the value of 
the plants, which are meritorious also in other points of view.
