I'BINCESS. A seedling from (iarza. Pure white, with ray 

 petals, evenly spaced art)und a large Anemone center of 

 quill petals, slightly touched with the pollen. In our ob- 

 servation, covering three seasons of bloom, it lias never 

 failed to show the Anemone center. The flower has good 

 substance, giving a lasting quality as a cut flower. The 

 habit of the plant is good, growing to a medium height 

 and covered with flowers; it is thus an ideal pot plant. 

 For effect in cutting it must be grown without disbud- 

 ding when a single spray will produce from five to a 

 dozen flowers. It is a midseason, blooming November 

 1st to 10th.
