Text Appearing Before Image:
by a belt of deciduous trees onrising ground on the east side of the lawn fromthe main entrance drive, a magnificent border ofhardy herbaceous plants has been laid out. To alba, Eryngium amethystinum, Erigeron spe-ciosum superbum, Centranthus ruber, Veronica,spicata alba. Chrysanthemum maximum. Pyre-thrum uliginosum. Spiraea palmata, CampaniUas.of sorts, Chelonebarbata, Sidalcea Listeri, Liatrisspicata, Monarda didyma, Achillea ptarmica.fl. pi., Scabiosa caucasica, and many newer sortstoo numerous to mention. Several fine clumps of Golden Rod, Monkshood,and Michaelmas Daisies, autumn Anemones,Perennial Sunflowers, &c., were only in bud, andrich and effective as the border already is, itwill be much more so by the end of August, forthe 900 feet altitude of Balmoral is not conduciveto early flowering. To be planted so lately asApril, and in such a dry summer, it shows verycareful cultivation and management to haveeffected such a happy result in the short periodof three months. J. Y.

Messrs Webb have manydepartments in their business. Immediatelyafter the wool has been handled, the Hopswill need attention, for the firm deals largely inthis crop. They have also a large manuremanufactory at Saltney, near Chester. YUCCAS. The present season seems to have been re-markable for the flowering of Yuccas. Frommany quarters we have received informationof the blossoming of these noble plants, espe-cially Y. gloriosa and Y. recurva. The path-way in an ordinary front garden ,of a suburbanresidence in the western suburbs is just nowremarkable for a double line of Yuccas in fuU brighten the somewhat sombre colours of Pines,Birches, &c., forming
