NiCOTIANA GlAUCA. HYBRID NiCOTIANA WiGANDOIDES RUBRA X X. GLAUCA. Hybrid Nicotianas. ^ After several years I have at last succeeded in crosssing Nicotiana alata, N. glauca, N. purpurea, N. suaveolens, N. afi&nis, N. colossea and others. Many of the new hybrid varieties were only obtained after several thousand crossings, under all conditions which seemed to promise success; but now I have perennial varieties with glaucous green foliage, edged, marbled and mot- tled with white, bearing pink flowers in cymes often two or three feet across, with from 500 to 2,000 or more blossoms in each cyme. These plants grow from five to eight feet high. Another strain of these hybrids grows more like N. affinis, with crimson and white striped flowers in abundance ; ever-blooming. TSee cut, page 2.) Another strain grows in the form of a branching tree, with pale, greenish- yellow, tubular flowers in panicles in such profusion that the upper part of the plant appears to be all flowers. Most of these hybrids are readily propagated from root cuttings or slips ; none of them ever bear any seed; all are unusu- ally hardy.
