S. SHEPPERSON, 
FLORIST & SEEDSMAN, 
Prospect House, Belper, Derbyshire, 
Begs to inform the readers of this paper that he 
is prepared to execute Orders for the following 
Plants, all of which are of the very finest 
possible strains that money can buy. They 
have all been grown on the Derbyshire Hills, 
and are therefore very hardy, strong, and war¬ 
ranted to succeed and bloom well. All Carriage 
Free for Cash with Order. Descriptive List of 
Florist Flowers, 4 d. Stamps, or Free to Customers. 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS 
HARDY PERENNIALS, 
FLO RISTS’ FLOWERS , Etc, 
I have very much pleasure in announcing that my new 
CATALOGUES of the above and other Plants are now 
ready, and are being issued to my regular Customers, 
and may be had gratuitously and post free upon appli¬ 
cation. 
HARDY PERENNIALS. 
The present season’s edition of this Catalogue has 
been prepared with an unusual amount of care, and 
contains almost every known Hardy Perennial of really 
sterling worth, either as a plant adapted specially for 
cutting, or as a decorative subject in pots, in" the 
borders, or in beds, and must certainly be admitted to 
be the most complete Catalogue of" Perennials ever 
published. It is embellished with a number of 
thoroughly well - executed Engravings, representing 
many of the specially meritorious and new Plants” 
Several of the Engravings have been expressly prepared 
for the.work in question. It also contains very complete 
collections of 
HARDY ORCHIDS, AQUATIC & BOC PLANTS, 
GAILLARDIAS, SUNFLOWERS, POPPIES, 
IRIS, LILIES, BAMBOOS, 
P/EONIES (TREE & HERBACEOUS). 
These are offered in the varied Catalogues, and go to 
constitute one of the most complete collections of 
these really interesting and practically indispensable 
Flowering Plants ever offered. I was awarded, last 
season, several First Class Certificates for new varieties. 
HARDY FLORISTS’ FLOWERS. 
This catalogue is one of the most complete and correct 
of its kind, containing every variety of real merit 
including Carnations, Picotees, ^Delphiniums, 
Pansies, Pyrethru-ms, Phloses, Pentstemons! 
and several other families. Twelve pages of ITovel- 
ties belonging to the families enumerated are also 
included. The catalogue is thoroughly complete, well 
illustrated, and contains abundant cultural notes. 
CHRYSANTHEMUMS. 
My collection of this family is one of the most complete 
in Europe. Every variety which is really worthy of 
cultivation is included—many varieties are offered in 
some catalogues which are really valueless, they will 
not be found in the catalogue referred to. It extends 
to twenty pages of really first-class sorts, all fully and 
correctly described, and is accompanied by a well- 
executed litho of a new late-flowering golden yellow 
variety, named Governor of Guernsey which I have 
much pleasure in offering this season for the first time, 
and which I am sure is destined to become the most 
popular of late-flowering varieties for cutting or for 
decorations. 
HARDY CUMBERS 
Are grown at Tottenham upon a most extensive scale. 
My annual sales of this section now reach prodirious 
proportions.^ Large quantities of Ampelopsis, Jasmines, 
Clematis, Wistaria, &c., are grown. 
HARDY FERNS. 
My collection of these has recently been very consider¬ 
ably extended, and now can fairly claim to be a com¬ 
plete and representative one of Hardy British and 
American Perns, and is a catalogue well deserving 
the attention of all who are interested in this usefiu 
class of plants. 
HARDY PRIMULAS. 
I hold a very extensive collection of these, which 
includes every variety claiming any real usefulness, 
amongst which are many beautiful Indian and other 
forms. 
Copies of any of the above Catalogues may be had upon 
application.

were planted at Glastonbury by Mr. T. Hansford, who dug them 
on Saturday last. They produced 37k lbs. of good sound Potatos. 
This and their good quality is sufficient to recommend them to all 
interested in the growth of the Potato."
