• Cultural directions are given in Messrs. Sutton's Gardening on

the Riviera (2s. 6d.) for the growing from seed of a wealth of sweet-scented and exotic-coloured flowers, from freesias to zinnias, from mignonette to nemesias. There is no reason why gardens on the" Cote d'Azur should not be gay with flowers grown from seeds from October to May, and winter visitors will find much useful information in this little book. There is also an excellent chapter on the difficulties of Riviera lawns and how they may be overcome.
