Liarge Flowering French. 
In this new class of Cannae wo have 
something of pronounced merit for 
bedding—either in rows or largo clumps 
— and for winter flowering in pots they 
are of scarcely less value. The foliage 
is luxuriant and the plants dwarf in 
habit. Their great merit, however, lies 
in the large size and brilliant hues of 
the flowers, ranging through all shades 
of yellow and orange to the richest crim¬ 
son, scarlet and vermilion ; some are also 
beautifully spotted. Seed sown in hot-bed 
or greenhouse from January to April will 
produce flowering plants in July. (See cut.)
