COB^A SCANDE3SS. Clerodendkon Balfouri. CROTONS. Nothing can excel the beauty and richness of coloring that is found in this class of plants. They are beautiful as pot plants for the conservatory, making hand- some specimens for decorative and purposes, and are now used extensively as bedding plants, for which purpose they are exceptionally well adapted. They should be planted in full sun in a position where they can be liberally supplied with water, which develops the most wonderful color- ings in the foliage. Undoubtedly the interesting and showiest bedding in our Philadelphia parks, the past few years, was made with this plant. We enumerate below a few of the leading varieties, but can supply many other sorts : Andreanum. Deep green with yellow and crimson markings. Baron James tie Rothschild. Olive- green and yellow, changing to brilliant ' crimson. AureillU Macillatum. I-i^ng narrow foliage with numerous yellow Sjjots. ;. Orange-yellow, edged with green and tinged with red. EvailsiailUlU. Tricolore
