We long promised to introduce a new way of putting up cut hlooms of Chrysanthemums for
Exhibition, hut, of course, saitl all, such a way would never look well, but admitted that it would
be worth trying, and also said he would be a bSltl fellow who dared to venture in public with a
departure from the ordinary and original style. We determined, therefore, to present six boxes,
feet long, 18 inches wide, as per engraving above, before the Floral Committee at the Royal
Horticultural Society, and to our delight and surprise before we had completed staging the flowers,
all our Floricultural critics spoke aloud that our new system was the right and proper one, and there
and then unanimously resolved that we should be presented with the Gold Medal — but we never got
it probably from the scarcity of material to make it.

Shirley Hibbard, Esq., Gardeners' Magazine, speaks thus:— “ At the meeting of the Floral
Committee, Messrs. Cannell & Sons showed a lot of cut flowers of all the sections mounted on
green moss in the manner of roses. About nine-tenths of the cultivators of these flowers would
find it impossible to follow the excellent example, but the practical lesson has its value, for if green
moss is not everywhere obtainable there may lie some suitable substitutes in the world that town
amateurs could secure for the purpose. For the present we must jog trot with our green hoards,
and keep the green moss in mind as a pleasant thing to dream about.'’

Exhibition blooms cannot he supplied.

dkqrjell & Sor^’ J'loi‘h-1 Gfuide.

At the great National Show at the Royal Aquarium,
where we had exhibits extending 40 ft. in length, repre-
senting all the sections of Chrysanthemums, the entire
public was in favour of the system, the mechanical formal
green flat boards of the neighbouring exhibit being
frequently contrasted with ours. We all know that large
glaring flowers without green lose half their charm,
whereas by this system a natural green can be added and
their own lovely foliage can be shown as well, which gives
the whole an exquisite appearance, and all societies must
eventually offer prizes for the best blooms set up in a rose
box in this manner: a box 4 ft. fi in. long, back (1 in. high,
front 4 in. high, made to exhibit twenty -four roses, will
stage cither of the following — twelve incurved (three to
four blooms to the bunch), twelve recurved (ditto), twelve
varieties of Japanese (ditto), twelve large Anemones
(ditto), eighteen Pompons or eighteen Pompon Anemones
(ditto). Cut the flowers, and wire each separately, so
that the blooms can he faced in any direction, bunching
three together with a bit of moss between ; so that they
are a nice distance from bloom to bloom, and arranged to
height, colour, and size. It will be necessary to have zinc
tubes l£ inches in diameter, and about 4 inches long, with
a flat foot stand to keep them erect, and place them in
accordance with the height of the box, so that when all is
done they show one continuous face, every flower in its
proper position; one half-inch cut too high or too low
will destroy its artistic arrangement. When carried out
well, such an exhibit will be the pride of the show. A
thick circular piece of cardboard should be placed at the
back of the flowers of the Japanese, large Anemones, and
incurved flowers to hold up their petals ; that is, cut a
round the size required, and make a hole in the centre of
the card for the f-tem, cut to the outside, and pin in the
shape of a lamp shade, with a bit of raffia round the stem,
which will hold it up in its place ; this, together with some

nice stub moss for the surface of box, is all that is necessary; the other few details cun be” seen to
as it is being proceeded with.

For Box, Tubes, &e., see end of Catalogue.

For the best treatise, “ How to grow the Chrysanthemums to perfection,”
see Molyneux’s Book, sent post free, Is. 2d.

Our stock is such as to enable us to supply well-established plants of the whole of the varieties in
November, they will then all be in flower, and for immediate decoration, propagation, and
correctness to name, leave nothing to be desired.

CHRYSANTHEMUM CUTTINGS.

We have adopted quite a new course with our stock for the supply of cuttings, which we
believe will be much more satisfactory to the purchasers, and far more successful than those
supplied in the usual way from plants which have stood close together with their long drawn-up
cuttings, and often from those not very healthy, whose colours have been strained to the utmost.

We now plant out our stock of young plants first week in May in the open ground, and cut them
down the end of September, then lilt them with large halls of earth and plant them in our earth -
stnge. close against the glass. They soon begin to throw up quantities of cuttings of a short sturdy
nature, quite diflereut to those from exhibition plants, and the difference is such that all growers who
have seen our two houses, 100 ft. each, full of these roots, would decide never to grow from the
over-worked old stools again.

NEW VARIETIES FOR 1891 (CANNELL).

NEW INCURVED CHRYSANTHEMUM,

TWO FIRST-CLASS CERTIFICATES.

ROBERT CANNELL. — Having grown anil (lowered 80 large plants this year (1890) we a e
aide to describe it correctly. Like all our seedlings, it has the Avalanche habit, dwarf, about 3 to 4
feet high, strong, free growth, every bloom coming good, and all beautifully incurved. So large are
the flowers that it can be used either as an ordinary incurved or Japanese incurved ; colour bronze-
red, with under petals distinctly gold coloured, every petal broad and bold. We staged a box of 50
blooms at the Centenary Show, which was the most conspicuous object in the exhibition. Trice
4s. each (after March, 2s. fir/.) ; cuttings, 2s. fir/., sent post free. Ready for distribution in February.
Awarded First-Class Certificate, National Chrysanthemum Society; First-Class Certificate,
Manchester.

THE GARDEN.

Robert Cannki.i. —A beautiful seedling incurved variety, raised by II. Cannelt & Sons, and
showing a marked advance. It is of the true incurved character, one of the flowers measuring
5i inches in width, the shape and finish faultless, and the colour a rich chestnut-red, the upper
surface of the florets deep bronzy gold. We shall expect to see this even finer, ns it has the
making of a matchless incurved flower.

On visiting H. CANNELL & SONS’ Nursery, THE GARDENERS’ MAGAZINE,

November 8th, says: —

Conspicuous amongst the numerous novelties that have a place in the collection is the new
incurved variety, Hubert Connell, which created so much interest when submitted to the Floral
Committee of the National Chrysanthemum Society last year. Anticipating a brisk inquiry
for so important an additi >n to its class, the firm have grown the variety largely, and the scores
of finely developed blooms afford the best possible opportunity for estimating its value for
exhibition. Tbe growth, it may be interesting to state, is robust and comparatively dwarf, and
the floweis are of the largest size, with broad finely incurved smooth florets, and perfectly
distinct in colour, the inner side of the florets being red-crimson and the back orange-buff.
Such a distinct novelty should speedily take a prominent position amongst buck row flowers.

W. II. Fowler, Esq., Claremont, Taunton, November 29///, 1.890. !

THE GARDEN, November 22nd, 1890.

Chrysanthemum Louis Boehmeu.— Messrs. Camiell & Sons, of Swaulev, have forwarded
11 1,101,111 of thls new variety, which they state has been sent to them from America Compared
wuh the one exhibited at the centenary show of the National Chrysanth muirn Society last
week, It IS much deeper in colour and larger. The Swan ley bloom is ii full, deep, solid flower,
measuring over 5 inches in diameter without stretching’ out the florets to their full extent
the outer ones being 4 inches from base to tip. The florets arc fully three-eights of an iu-h
broad, very regularly incurving towards the centre, the inside- of them beim.- of a deep
purplish-rose, with the reverse several shades lighter. The hair-like growths are numerous ;
they appear oil the back of the florets and mostly towards the extremities. The inner florets
are the more noticeable in this respect. As mentioned in The Garden, November 15, 18dd
, (p. 452), the stem is strong and stiff.

GARDENING WORLD, November 22nd, 1890.

Chrysanthemum Louis Boehmeu. — A fine bloom of this new pink “ plume ” variety sent
from America has been forwarded to us by Messrs. II. Cannell & Sons, and which even after
its long journey was quite fresh, with the exception of a few of the outer florets. The bloom
, measured 5 ins. in diameter, and is precisely of the same form and habit as that of Mrs. Alphcus
Hardy. The upper surface of the florets is of a blight rosy purple, but the reverse is of a
clear soft pink, so that the variety may rightly he described as a pink Mrs. Alphas J lardy
owing to the incurved state of the florets. The bristly hairs on the back of the latter arc
slightly branched, and confined chiefly to a portion near the apex of the reverse surface.

In any ease the centre is more or less hidden by the incurving florets. It is therefore not only
quite distinct from Mr*. Alpha* Hardy, hut very pretty, and a great acquisition to a race
which may yet become numerous.

Mr. U. W. Sanders, Editor of “Amateur Gardening,” November loth, 1800.

Many thanks for the bloom you have been good enough to send me to-day of Louis '/Miner.

I had heard a great deal of this wonderful variety, but not had the pleasure of seeing one
of the blooms until I received yours. I am exceedingly pleased with it, and should imagine it
will ultimately become a very popular variety. At any rate, the bloom you send affords 5 every
promise of such being the ease. Personally 1 prefer Louis Boehmer to Mrs. Alphas Hardy,
an l shall be very much surprised if it does not fur outstrip the latter in popularity. How
wonderfully fresh the bloom looked after its long transatlantic journey ; it is marvellous that
such a feat should he accomplished so successfully. A coloured plate "w-i 11 appear in this paper
the first week in February.

C. Harman Payne, Esq., 00, Thorne Road, South Lambeth, S.W., November loth, lg'.U).

1 have received the bloom of Louis Boehmer, and from what I had previously heard of it
from America was not prepossessed in its favour. But the flower von send of the new hairy
petalled Japanese is something out of the ordinary, and is, I consider, a greater cariosity than j
Mrs. Alphnus Hardy. It is a bold incurving Japanese, with long grooved petals, about five
inches in diameter, and four inches in depth. But for the regular incurved form of the
petals the flower would he at least twice the size across, for I measured a single petal and
found it just over four inches in length. Inside, the colour is a deep purple amaranth, and
the reverse is a soft silvery pink. The hairs are very numerous and clearly defined, being
mostly towards the tips of the petals and on the reverse. To jiidge by the stem it seems that
Louis live Inner is a sturdier growing plant than Mrs. Alpheus Hardy, and it has, l notice, a
similar wax-like appearance on the outside of the petals.

WEEDON BEAUTY (Pearce) — The well-known Ba ronne de Prailhf sported Care. tv / nderwood ,
and now the latter has sported and given us this lovely red chestnut and gold offspring, retaining
the grand shaped flower of its grandparent, which is highly prized and always shown in nearly all
first and second prize stands ; this is a good one indeed. 4s. each.

^ SUNSET — The most extraordinary single variety ever seen. When shown before the Floral
Committee, and awarded a first-class certificate, the theme of conversation was that no one without
measuring its wonderful proportions would believe from tip to tip it measured 16 inches and an
unusual breadth of petal, and inches from outside shoulder to shoulder; ground colour
lovely orange-yellow with half of most of the petals bright red-tinted rose, which makes it most
striking and attractive in the extreme, where a grand and uncommon floral object is desired, and
which one can hardly believe is real without a minute examination; this is the kind for dinner
table decoration. It ia the most astonishing Chrysanthemum ever produced; has the pleasant
fragrance of the daffodil. 3>. each.

FOR STANDS OF CUT BLOOMS.

Amongst the many stands of flowers seen at Chrysanthemum exhibitions, none, in our opinion,
surpass these for beanty of colour and chaste appearance. They should be exhibited with three
sprigs or shoots, together with from 8 to 10 inches of stem ami foliage. As their flower stems are
very weak, and do not hold up their flowers well, they should be strengthened with wire.

JAPANESE CHRYSANTHEMUMS.

SECRETS IN COMPETITION.

Although the Japanese do not require to be made as uniform as if they had been cast in one mould,
like the incurved and recurved, yet they require similar arrangement, so that they each present a
regular and pretty form, whatever their natural shape may be. Massiveness and great depth of
flower is most appreciated ; Hat hollow centres and undecided colours should be avoided. No model
can be set up in this section as the one required. Yet whatever style of twisting, curling, or
recurving bestsuitsthe variety, so assist that growth of the flower to develop itself, and when done,
it must be such as the eye will cause the tongue to say, “That is pretty; I like that variety.”
It generally follows, what pleases the public pleases the judges, and that is the secret of success.

EARLY-FLOWERING CHRYSANTHEMUMS.

(fl^ARLY (lowering Chrysanthemums are making rapid improvement; we now give them more
Sw attention and grow them better. Our house, after the Carnations and l’icoteeswere removed,
and during August and September, was really a fine sight. It cannot be said we have nothing
hut Dahlias in the autumn, for these can be had in abundance ; yes. for many continue throwing up
(lowers after the first lot arc cut — so very different to the ordinary November kinds, and for bedding
many of the varieties make a grand feature. Mr. Graham, the Superintendent of Hampton Court
Gardens, writes us : — “ Maritime C. Desyramje has again made the most attractive bed in the Gardens
this season, and these are fust becoming a most important section of this family, hut like all Chrysan-
themums they require to he well grown, otherwise they will end in disappointment.”

COUNTRY GROWN PLANTS AND CUTTINGS.

I lie difference between our country grown plants and cuttings, and those grown and sold in or near
London or other towns, is so manifest, that no comparison can he drawn. True, they like soot at
their roots, hut not to he covered with it. as they must he when grown in such a situation, and for the
want of light are poor and drawn up ; whereas, ours arc clean, strong, and healthy, and will root in
half the time.

If we were to print half the extracts from the various horticultural papers, and the letters from
those to whom we have sent flowers, including some of the highest titled patrons in the land, they
would fill many pages, therefore we are convinced the following will suffice to cause these most highly
useful and easily grown flowers to bo cultivated in every garden. They arc little or no trouble to
grow ; produce more blooms, last longer in good condition, either cut or uncut, than the doubles,
iu persistency of petal the single Dahlias bear no comparison, neither do they for real beauty and
use. Further, they have a nico perfume, and for all kinds of decoration will not only add a new
charm, but fill our tables with brightness and beauty up to and past Christmas.

f CHRYSANTHEMUM (MARGUERITES) PARIS DAISIES.

( Golden and Silver Stars.)

This class is really one of the most valuable for cut flowers ; with only ordinary care they can be
had in flower all the year. During the winter they are indispensable, and if afterwards planted out
they make a splendid bed ; if they have a fault at all, it is because they are too easily propagated.
They were much admired by all visitors at the Paris Exhibition, and are extensively grown in the
French parks as bedding plants. The fact of their never ceasing flowering makes them household
flowers everywhere.
