•VTEW and CHOICE FLOWER SEEDS, GERMAN STOCKS, GERMAN 
1 1 ASTERS, &c.-We have selected, out of a large collection of Flower Seeds, twenty of the 
most beautiful and showy varieties, each sort distinct in colour, and calculated to produce a fine 
effect when planted out in beds or groups in the flower border. We have,had each variety dis¬ 
tinctly marked with its Botanical and English name—height—time of flowering—colour of the 
flower—manner of growing—wJiethejj erect or trailing, &c., &c.— tl\e time it Should fc'e.sown, and 
other valuable hints as to its cultivation. In selecting these twenty varieties \ve have been careful 
to exclude all which are shy-bloomers, or have an insignificant appearance; so that the collection 
will comprise only those which are really showy and handsome, and which we believe would prove 
to the entire satisfaction of any lady or gentleman who might be disposed to order them. The 
German Stocks and Asters, especially, are most superb. 
The Twenty Packets are neatly packed up in one paper, and will be sent free by post, to any 
part of the kingdom, for Five Shillings.
