by Messrs. Cutbush and Mr. William Paul,—an observation which 
holds good, as far as we have been able to judge, with the greater 
number of plants, of whatever class. Nowhere are such fine 
specimens of cultivation to be seen as in this garden-loving 
country. 
Thorwalclsen is one of those very attractive blue flowers which 
are always sure to please, although it is very difficult to do jus¬ 
tice to its delicate colouring. The ground colour is a delicate 
slate-blue, and the centre of each petal has a broad stripe of 
deep azure. The flower has been frequently exhibited by Mr. 
Cutbush, and has been favourably noticed wherever it has been 
shown.
