CUTTINGS. 
W E liave always refrained from competition 
in order to devote all our time and attention to the 
probuction of best, healthy stock, and to enable our customers 
to succeed year by year, we have specially grown and so pre¬ 
pared our stock to attain the greatest possible perfection. All 
exhibitors of plants know it is of the utmost importance to 
commence with all the vigour and health obtainable, and to 
ensure this we have grown a complete stock of large plants in 
the open, and cut down early in October, so that they should 
yield strong, sturdy, early, healthy cuttings, and not exhausted 
of their colour, &c., or overfed and sickly, as on the ordinary 
system when huddled close together for weeks in comparative 
darkness. Those we now offer are clean country-grown, and 
from the first placed close against the glass, having all the 
possible light, thus enabling us to supply such quality cuttings 
as never before offered. We also have an immense quantity of 
plants specially grown for immediate exportation safely to any 
part of the world.
