These plants, however, although not alive, are subject to death. In about 48 hours they are aged. Growth ceases, and they crumble ; With other formulas, M. Leduc has ob- tained liquid cellules in a liquid medium, which present the phenomena of seg- mentation, of division into still smaller cellules within the primitive cell, as in the case of an egg during incubation. Still, he contends, there is no real life. The experiments, however, are of great interest to science, as they show the cor- relation between the form of plant and their physical environment. Salvia Zurich. If anyone grows salvias for bedding he should try this new variety which was introduced last season. It is worthy to be grown in preference to our other standard varieties. We have given it a thorough trial and so have some of our craft here and it has so well satisfied, that we have discarded Bonfire and Lord Fauntlcroy. which we grew before.
