TREPHO” FOR ORCHIDS. 
This new material has been found a most successful article for 
Blocks, Rafts, and Pot Orchids. It is Live Sphagnum pressed 
into solid blocks by hydraulic pressure, after having been 
chemically treated, to prevent its decay or souring. In the 
saturated atmosphere of an Orchid house it absorbs and con¬ 
tinuously takes up all the gases and moisture, and retains the 
same for several days without drying or being redipped. One 
dipping will last from three days to a week. Mr. Fred. Horsman, 
of Colchester, reports “ I have ti'ied ‘Trepho * with very great 
success, having potted many thousand Orchids with it.” Sole

TESTIMONIAL. 
The Gardens, Burghley, Stamford, 
September 11th, 1S84. 
Gentlemen,—I have received the Garden Frames, and I am 
quite delighted with them. They are really well got up, well 
timbered, and the sides and ends being grooved, will prevent 
that objectionable swaging so prevalent in these kind of boxes. 
I shall certainly recommend them to my brothers in the trade.
