232 a descriptive catalogue of tulips. 



Ophir 

 Is a fourth row flamed Bizarre, cup rather long, bottom pure, 

 yellow good ; marks and colours in the style of Charles X. 



Pandora 

 Is a second row flamed Byblomen, good cup and bottom ; marks 

 well. This has been considered a crack flower by some, and sold at 

 a very high price. It is scarcely ever seen perfect, being no doubt a 

 tender variety, and generally much injured by the frost, which causes 

 its three outer petals to be very green, and scarcely ever bleaches out. 



Passe Reine d'Egypt 

 Is a second row rosy-coloured flamed Byblomen ; form good, ex- 

 cepting the petals being pointed ; bottom pure ; marks well. 



Patty (Lawrence's) 

 Is a second row flamed Byblomen, good cup, bottom creamy, 

 colour darkish, and is a good marker. 



Petit Donceil 

 Is a second row flamed Byblomen, good cup, bottom bad, and not 

 worthy a place in any collection. 



Pluto Superb (same as David). 

 Ponceau tres Blanc (same as Catalina). 

 Ponceau tres Blanc (Dutch) 

 Is a second row flamed Rose, of a scarlet colour ; its cup good, 

 and a rich china white, beautifully flamed with a scarlet colour. 



Queen of Hearts (Franklin's) 

 Is a third row feathered Rose, raised from seed and broken by 

 Mr. Franklin, of the City-road. The cup of this flower is good, the 

 bottom creamy at opening, the feathering a bright scarlet, and is a 

 first-rate stage flower. 



Queen Victoria (Willmer's) 

 Is a third row flamed Byblomen, good cup and bottom, but stamens 

 slightly tinged ; is a heavy marker, and the colours good and dark. 



Raven 

 Is a first row flamed Byblomen, raised from seed by Mr. Bromley, 

 of Horley-hill, near Manchester, and broken for the first time from 

 the breeder in my collection this year. The cup of this flower is 

 good, the bottom pure, colour dark, and is a fine marking variety.
