MYROBALAN.

produces a fruit which has the appearance of a

faint juice, so disagreeable, that even the birds

PROMPTITUDE. 
TEN-WEEK STOCK. 
Ts is a most valuable variety of the stock, 
for no sooner is the seed sown than it germi- 
nates, and after forty days it is seen loaded with 
flowers. These are very transient in their 
duration, and if we wish to have them through- 
out the summer season, we must sow them at 
three different periods, at intervals of about a 
month from each other. Nothing has more of 
freshness or variety than the shades of lilac, 
rose colour, and white, which are observed on 
these flowers; they also diffuse a charming 
odour,
