of tlie discoloration of the foliage resulting from this process, 
he has not found it sufficient to kill the thrips.* 
“ Forget-me-Not ” is described by Mr. I very as of “ dwarf, 
compact habit, with small neat foliage, the colour a purplish- 
red, with rich markings in the upper segments, and quite dis¬ 
tinct from any other kind.” We do not hesitate to say that 
we think it will be a general favourite, for it is one of those 
flowers that keep a long time in bloom. We believe it will 
be sent out in May of next year. 
* The process of fumigation is a very unpleasant one, and it is therefore with 
considerable satisfaction that we can recommend an improved fumigating 
bellows, recently brought out by Messrs. Barr and Sugden, of King Street, 
Covent Garden. The case to hold the tobacco is made of solid brass, so that 
there is no fear of its giving way with heat, and as it is supplied complete for 
a small sum, it will be acceptable to many amateurs. We have used it with 
much effect in our own greenhouses.
