grow, which they will do rapidly. They should then be well 
staked, and brought into the conservatory as their flower-buds 
are produced. By this treatment good plants are obtained, 
which give a succession of flowers during the dreariest winter 
months. 
The varieties which we now figure are all from the collection 
of the Messrs. Henderson, and are —Delicatissima (Fig. 1), a very 
pretty pink flower, having the petals thickly barred with a deep 
pink or light-crimson; Victoria (Fig. 2), is a beautiful light- 
crimson flower, flaked with dark crimson, approaching to black ; 
while Princess Alice (Fig. 3) is a bright yellow, with red bars 
and flakes, forming a very pretty and attractive flower.
