' Barraup’s Cornewivs.—Heavy-edged, red Picotee: pod good; 
petals very broad, thick, and well formed ; ground pure; edging very 
regular and bright. This is a very heavy-edged flower and is very apt 
to stripe, but when it is in character it is excellent. 
Marris’ Mary.—Heavy-edged, red Picotee: pod good; petals large 
and well formed; ground pure; edging well marked, apt to bar 
slightly. 
Hupson’s Venus.—Light-edged, red Picotee: pod of a medium 
size; petals well formed and with a full good crown ; ground clear ; 
edging pretty regular. This is a nice neat flower. 
Krrtiann’s Duke or Wexiineton.—Light-edged, red Picotee: 
pod fair; petals broad and pretty even; ground not very pure, being 
a little spotty ; edging regular. 
Suarr’s Hecror.—Light-edged, rose Picotee: pod pretty fair ; 
petals large and well formed; ground very pure; edging pretty 
regular. 
Ler’s Mary.—Light-edged, purple Picotee: pod good ; petals well 
formed and of a medium degree of stiffness; ground pretty pure; 
edging regular and distinct. 
Krrriann’s Queen Victrori1a.—Light-edged, purple Picotee: pod 
good; petals well formed though small ; ground pure; edging very 
regular and delicate. In order to get this flower of a sufficient size for 
exhibition the pods ought to be reduced in number to a very few, and, 
indeed, this applies to almost all the light-edged class of Picotees. 
Exy’s Grace Dariine.—Light-edged, purple Picotee: pod good ; 
petals pretty well formed, but thin; ground pure; edging perfect and 
distinct. As the styles stand out well this is a very good variety from 
which to obtain seed by crossing, &c. 
Brinkiow’s Purrte Perrecrion.—Light-edged, purple Picotee : 
pod good; petals very firm and smooth; ground pure; edging very 
light and regular. ‘This is an exceedingly good flower of its class. 
Parxinson’s Matiupsa.—Red Picotee: pod fair; petals large and 
thick ; ground good; edging rather irregular and apt to bar. 
Wootrarn’s Lirrte Wonper.—Red Picotee: pod middling ; 
petals good, but small; ground good; edging distinct and well marked. 
This is a neatly shaped flower, but rather small, and like others of its 
kind must be reduced in the number of its flower pods, in order to get 
it of a sufficient size. 
Benn’s Marc Antrony.—Red Picotee: pod fair ; petals pretty well 
formed, but rather thin; ground good; edging finely marked with 
dark red.
