NEW BULB CATALOGUE 
E. G. HENDERSON & SON, of the Wellington Nursery, St. John’s Wood, London,- 
in presenting their Annual Catalogue of Dutch and other Flower Roots, beg to say their Collection is selected with much 
care, and would draw particular attention to the Hyacinths, which have been proved in their Nursery to possess those 
properties for which this tribe is celebrated, viz., brilliant colour, close compact truss, and good habit. (The Dutch 
collections having such a number of cheap varieties which are offered to the London Market, that it is requisite for them 
to he proved before being offered to the Public.) 
Among the other Lists of Bulbs they would call attention to the Gladiolus, particularly to Section Til., (hybrids of 
“ Gandavensis”) and can recommend such as “ Fanny Rouget," “ Monsieur Blouet,” “ Courantii Fulgens,” as possessing 
first-rate merits. °

EARLY TULIPS. 
The following beautiful collections 
of Single and Double Tulips are 
highly recommended, their brilliant 
colours rendering them the most 
attractive feature for the decoration 
of the Greenhouse and Flower 
Borders during the early spring , 
at the sume time affording an oppor¬ 
tunity of clearing them out of the 
beds in time to turn out the usual 
bedding plants in May,
