Joly, Barnaud, Nigon, Aussel, Dozol, etc. We were happy, in the toasts that we had the honor to make in the name of the jury, during the banquet accompanying each of these exhibitions, to congratulate the coastal horticulturalists for the great effort they had made and the joy that ‘he had known how to bring visits to China did not quite follow the sumptuary revolution of his European counterpart, he was nonetheless the one who followed him more closely in the importance of his improvements.
