This beautiful variety is not of so old an introduction as the - 
preceding. Morison gives us the first account of it, in 1699. 
The flower opens of a fine rose colour, and afterwards becomes 
pale flesh; it is not so common as the preceding, but never- 
theless is too well known among the ad eod to require any 
further description. SO.

Tabernæmontanus race this variety in 1590; it aiia must 
have come into notice nearly about the same period as the double

becomes alinost quite white; is very common along with the dou- 
ble red in most of the old gardens, from which even neglect and 
bad treatment will not Danish them.
