|jkHE vexed Question of Nomencla- 
ture.— The naming of plants is a sub¬ 
ject which frequently comes up for con¬ 
sideration and reconsideration and again 
dismissed or allowed to remain in abeyance 
till some more convenient period. Two 
writers in The Fern Bulletin for January have 
taken up the favourite theme, if such we 
may name it, “ false trinomialism ” being 
the subject at issue. Mr. W. Palmer com¬ 
plains that the “ misconceptions of the true 
values of a species and the rather flippant use 
of the word variety used by horticulturists,” 
have fostered the loose practice of giving 
Latin names to distinguish variations 
amongst plants, either supposed or real. 
Well, as far as the general run of gardeners 
is concerned the word “ \ ariety ’ is made to 
do duty from a group of species to species, 
varieties, forms, or races of plants; but the 
class of men, who practise this happy-go- 
A valuable early Cauliflower, <-f strong constitution. The 
heads are very firm, compact, of snowy whiteness, and the 
finest quality.
