From Mr. Turner ; the same as Scarlet Perfection and Boule 

 deFeti; and also some plants sent as Vivid. Moderately vigorous 

 in growth ; leaves with a slight green zone, sometimes hardly 

 apparent ; flowers in large close heads, elevated on remarkably 

 long stalks, large and well formed^ rich bright scarlet. It is one 

 of the very best vaiieties, remarkable for its bold showy flower- 

 trusses. A very fine sort for pots and vases, but somewhat late- 

 flowering.

From Mr. Turner, Mr. Taylor, and Mr. Scott. Dwarf spread- 

 ing habit; leaves darkly zoned; flowers small, in medium-sized 

 open trusses, dull light scarlet with -white eye. A useful sort, 

 and a very good early blooming plant for pot-culture ; the foliage 

 is prettily marked. 



49. Bishopstowe. 



From Mr. Turner. Habit spreading; leaves darkly zonate, 



well marked; flowers medium-sized, bright scarlet with white 



eye. Early in the blooming season this was adjudged to be 



beaten by Agatha, but towards the middle of September the 



flowers became both larger and brighter coloured than in that 

 variety. 



60. Captivation. 



From Mr. Turner, Mr. Scott, and Mr. Kinghorn. Leave! 



zonate ; flowers light scarlet, in fine coinpact trusses* A useful 

 variety.
