as the original variety. The plants are growing in 5-in. pots, 
and without any stimulant whatever. If you will please miorm 
me through The Gardening World it will greatly oblige. 
^ The youngest bloom, which was in the half expanded state, 
showed a flower of a deep bronzy tint, and if it retains this hue 
when fully expanded it might very well be named Bronze 
Mytchett,' though, speaking from memory, we are not pertaan 
whether there is a sport of this variety already so named. At er 
the flowers had been in our possession for some little time the 
bronze colour almost disappeared, leaving a beautifully formed 
flower of a light can'hry-yellow, tinted with salmon pink on the 
outer florets. We cannot be certain if tins can be described as 
the true character of the flower, as it was somewhat old before 
we had an opportunity of inspecting it. Whether it is bronze or 
yellow, however, in the perfect state, we consider it quite ais- 
tinct from Mytchett White, and well worthy of preservation. 
We strongly suspect that it must he the same as Mytchett Calory, 
a sport with bronzy yellow flowers, tinted salmon, which we 
think would correspond very closely to your variety if we had 
seen it in perfection. 
Flora of Sussex. (Flora.) 
We shall endeavour to find this out for you, but in the mean¬ 
time we have had no opportunity of consulting the libraries, and 
it is a book that is. not often met with. 
Fruits to Name. (I. D. W. and John Smith.) 
There is some difficulty in the way of getting fruits named, so 
that we are sorry we cannot undertake to name your Apples. 
Propagating Viburnum Plicatum. 
We have a good-sized plant of the Japan Snowball (Viburnum 
plicatum), and should like a quantity to plant in a bed. Would 
you say how it may best be propagated % (H. M.) 
It is rather late now to propagate it by means of half-ripened 
young wood in the form of cuttings, which should be done in the 
greenhouse or cold frame during July or August, according to' 
the stage of growth of the cuttings. We should advise you, how¬ 
ever, to take cuttings, of the shoots after the leaves have fallen and 
injsert them in sandy soil in pots, making them quite firm, and 
standing the same ini a house, where they will just be protected 
from frost. In the springtime, should they give evidence of 
beginning to 1 groiv, you can then put the pots intoi a gentle heat, 
so as to encourage rooting. By taking out a cutting or 
two' you can, however, ascertain whether the cuttings have 
callused, and, if so, you may then safely place them in the heat to 
accelerate the rooting process. Another method of propagating 
this shrub is by means of layers in July. By such means you 
would get stronger plants, hut unless you have plenty of stock 
you might not be able to get sufficient number for your require¬ 
ments, on account of the larger branches that would have to be 
layered.

“ I Really Must Use Vi-Cocoa.” 
Thousands of men and women, after reading itihiei particulars 
published respecting the merits of Dr. Tibbies’ Vi-Cocoa., have 
been induced to becoijie regular drinkers of this popular food 
beverage. But many have said to ithemiselves, “ I really must 
use Vi-Cocoa,” and have failed to. do. so. Why? There is 
no more agreeable and inexpensive cocoa on the market. A 
6d. packet or a. 9d. or Is. 6d. tin is value indeed, for Vi-Cocoa, 
does all that it is claimed to do, and there is no so-called 
concentrated or foreign; cocoa in the world to equal it. It 
is highly nutritious, imparts, stamina to the system, is refresh¬ 
ing to the weary brain-worker, and recuperates the body after 
physical fatigue.
