II. Caiinell & Soi\& Pior.il wuule. NEW HELIOTROPIUM. QUEEN MARGUERITE— This valuable novelty, raised from a between Heliolrop. incanum and Heliotrop peruvianum, has proved quite ant after several years cultivation. The habit of Queen Margueriti is a dwarf compact one. and the profuse willingness of flowering is unequalled by any other sort in existence. The hardly 1-inch long sprigs produce continually (nearly the whole year) immense, sweet-scented clusters of deep dark blue coloured (lowers, often 12 to 14 inches in diameter. A beautiful novelty, suitable for pot or border culture, and of high value for cut flower purposes. 2s. each. SENECIO LEUCOSTACHYS A species found by Mons. 1". Andre in the northern provinces of Uruguay. Produces elegant silvery foliage, and will add another plant of merit for outdooi decoration of large beds and bordurs. 2s each. QUEEN M AKO CEKI I B. GRAND NEW PEDIGREE ROSE HYBRID TEA;. With the Introducer's Description. IsELLE SIEBRECHT—A truly superb rose, the result of a cross between La Franct and Lady Fitzwi/litim, colour imperial pink. Mr. Matthews, the greatest authority on colours in America, pronounces it a solid pink of the richest shade—a rare colour. The Bowers, which are sweetly perfumed, tire large, beautifully formed, and of long tapering shape with high centre, and when half blown the petals reflex in graceful manner. The buds (which are borne on strong erect stems, H to 2 ft. in length; are from 2$ to 3 iu. long, and when fully blown the flowers are 5£ to 'i in. in diameter without showing the centre The flowers have great substance—the petals, which arc of a heavy texture, do not easily bruise or tarnish ; they are good lusters, some having been kept seven days without falling. It is a free and vigorous grower, with large and glossy foliage of leathery texture, entirely free from mildew ; a most prolific bloomer, every growth producing a perfect Sower, not a deformed flower or bullhead ever having been seen. It is predicted by eminent rose growers that it will be the best selling and the best paying rose that has over been introduced. We do not send this rose out to be tried, as we have subjected it to the severest tests for over two _\ ears, and we can recommend it as a first-class acquisition. It has received the Gold Medal of the National Hose Society of Great Britain, and First-Class Certificates from all the leading Horticultural Societies in Europe and America. It has proved itself to be a free and thorough everbloomer, ami perfectly hardy out of doors in this country. It should also he stated that this rose is unite distinct from the now popular varieties which are grown for cut flowers. Il excels them all in colour, form, and freedom of blooming, ami develops and holds it* colour perfectly in dull weather. Dean Hole, of England, the greatest acknowledged rosarian, and the anthorof the " Book on Roses," Says:— •'It is not only the tine form and beautifal colonr, which all must admire, but the vigorous habit and endurance of the flowers, all of which must cause it to be universally welcomed.''
