130 REPORT ON TELAEGONIUMS 



narrow-petaled dull orange-scarlet flowers thrown vrell above t!ie 

 leaves. Very distinct in habit, foliage, and flowers, and therefore 



useful. 



8. Lady Sarah. 



From Mr. G. Smith. Moderately vigorous ; flowers very large, 

 If inch across, bright scarlet, in fair-sized trusses. A good 

 second-rate variety. 



9. Lamartine. 



From Mr. Scoxr. Bright scarlet, with well-formed flowers in 

 fine trusses. The flowers were good early in the season ; evi- 

 dently a useful sort. 



10. little David. 



From Messrs, Low. Dwarf, free-flowering, with abundant small 

 trusses of scarlet flowers, having a small white eye. Useful for its 

 ^warfness. 



11. Prizefighter. 



From Mr. Aybes. Very similar to Punch, and too near to be 

 required in addition to that variety. A good sort, therefore, but 

 not rec[uired. 



18. Punch. 



From Mr. Taylob, Messrs, Fraseb, and Mr. Turner. Plants 

 of medium vigour, with healthy moderate-sized leaves : flower- 

 trusses large, bold, on long stalks ; flowers scarlet, with a slight 

 white eye, the" pips about 1^ inch across. A first-rate variety for 

 bedding out, and considered by far the best of the stronger- 

 growing plain-leaved sorts for this purpose. It proved to be also 

 a good pot-plant.

18. Queen of Scarlets. 



From Mr. Scott. Vigorous; flowers large, bright scarlet, in 

 large ratlier open trusses. Very like JRigby's Queen. 



14. Eigby's Queen. 



From Messrs. Fbaser. A good useful sort, similar in babit to 

 Punch, but having rather larger flowers; desirable. A good sort 



for pot-culture during the winter, being a free-bloomer at that 

 season.
