Excerpt from Choice Stove and Greenhouse Ornamental-Leaved Plants

Tm: First Edition of my work on Choice Stove and Greenhouse Flowering Plants has met with such success that it encourages me to issue a Second Edition, and, as well as the large sale I have had, it has been found useful to amateurs as well as gardeners in their pursuits.

I have received intimations and assurances how thoroughly the work, both as a practical and useful one, has been appreciated. It is highly gratifying to me, and induces me to enlarge upon the subj ect by adding those plants that have been introduced since my first work on this subj ect was published. I have endeavoured to make it equally interesting to my readers as a second volume as it has been as a first, in the hopes that I may be spared to some future period to enlarge even more fully than I have done now, in the meantime my best thanks are due to my numerous patrons.
