PRINCESS. A seedling from Garza. Pure white, with ray 

 petals, evenly spaced around a large Anemone center of 

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

 servation, covering three seasons of bloom, it has 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 lOtb. 

 Plants from 214 -inch pots: 25c. each, $2.50 per doz.,
