fully sustained the expectations which had 
been formed of them. These will form the 
subjects of a future notice; and we may dis¬ 
miss this account of the Exhibition by saying 
that the old and well-tested favourites kept, as 
usual, well to the front. These comprise, in 
Feathered Bizarres, Sir J. Paxton. Masterpiece, 
Demosthenes, Storer’s 4, and Commander;

CLIANTHUS PUNICEUS. 
S a companion plant to the Wistaria , 
this sober-coloured climber comes in 
usefully, where there is room for it. I 
grew both plants together, and the dressy 
Wistaria looked like some fair lady adorned 
for a ball or an evening party, and had its 
effect heightened by contrast with the hue of 
the Clianthus. Both plants require to be 
looked up to, just as we see the flowers of 
Fuchsias and Laburnums in their pride, when 
they dangle over our heads. I prevented the 
Clianthus from flowering for one season, that I 
might get it well up to display its beauty. It 
was in the long open corridors at Alton Towers, 
with glass over-head only, but with no artifi¬ 
cial heat, that I tried the experiment of growing 
the Wistaria and this plant together ; and I 
found that there were few hardy greenhouse 
climbers that could equal them when they 
are in their glory, if well grown and in a 
suitable place to show themselves to advantage. 
They have, moreover, the advantage of coming 
early.
