Barr & Sugden's spring seed catalogue and guide to the flower and kitchen garden / Barr & Sugden. . lackfriars. Our illustration gives the ornamental ground extending from Charing Cross Railway Station toWaterloo Bridge, designed by Alexander MKenzie, Esq., Landscape Gardener, Alexandra Park, Muswell Hill;executed by Mr. Joseph F. Meston, the well-known horticultural contractor, and clothed with a beautiful greensward, the produce of our mixture of grasses specially made for ornamental parks in large towns.

Thereis no part of London which is fraught with so much interest as the part we have illustrated. The shaded portionrepresents where our grass-seed was soz
