    Calls at the Nurseries

    ART. IV. Calls at the Nurseries and Suburban Gardens.

    As soon as the afflicting circumstance which recalled us suddenly from our tour would permit, we began to visit the principal London nurseries and suburban gardens, to see if any thing remarkable had taken place during our five months' absence. We cannot say that we found much change. Kewley's mode of heating by hot water is spreading rapidly. The mowing-machine (noticed p. 611.) will be found, when known, an important accession to garden implements. In almost every nursery.
