The flowers are from an inch to an inch and a half in length, of the most intense scarlet, shading into flame, tipped with bright golden- yellow, and are covered with a thick scarlet moss. The brilliancy of the flowers is greatly enhanctd by the waxy-green light leaves, and the blossoms remain on the plants weeks before falling. This variety must not be confounded with the old Manettia Cordifolia, as it is far superior to the old variety. Price, 50 cents per dozen ; $4 per hundred. SOLANUM JASM1NOIDES GRANDIFLORUM.

It has star-shaped flowers, something like a Clematis, and borne in large clusters. They are in color a pure white, with violet tinge on the back. Price, 5 cents each ; 40 cents per dozen ; S3 per hundred. THE BLUE SOLANUM—SOLANUM AZUREM. Certainly one of the finest plants lately introduced.

Price, 60 cents per dozen ; $6 per hundred. SANSEVER1A ZEALANICA. This beauiiful house plant is well adapted for the dec
