Other hybrids of C. lanuginosa are the following- 



though tfc , inr'~ r- i bel n ^ s P robabl y C. Pellieri, Carr 

 188pfp. 228 lanuginosa Xrecta as the parents. R.H. 



a, Anderson-Henry (xC. florida var. Fortune!) 

 i from Floral Magazine, 1872). Fls. very large; 



sepals 6-8, broad, rose-purple, marked with darker veins. Aug.- 

 Nov. G. 33:411. Var. Symesidna (C. Symesiana, Anderson- 

 Henry. xC. florida var. Fortunei). Fls. 7 in. across; sepals 6-8, pale 

 mauve; a profuse bloomer. Var. Henryi (C. Henryi, Anderson- 

 Henry). Fig. 988. Robust plant; free bloomer: fls. creamy white, 

 becoming fully expanded when grown in the open sun or under 

 glass. Aug.-Nov. Gn.M. 13:348. G.M. 43:318. It resembles 

 more the lanuginosa parent. It is not to be confused with C. 

 Henryii, Oliv., a Chinese species allied to C. orientalis and not in 

 cult. 



C. Gablenzii ( X C. patens; C. patens var. Gablenzii, Hort.). Lvs. 

 simple or 3-parted, ovate, subcordate: fls. large deep violet-blue: 

 sepals 6-8. G.Z. 14:80. Here belong also: 



Otto Froebel, Lemoine. Lvs. leathery, simple or 3-parted: fls. of 

 fleshy texture, grayish white, sometimes becoming bluish; sepals 

 8, blunt, broad; anthers brownish. Imperatrice Eugenie, Carre 

 (C. I. var. pallida XC. patens). Lvs. simple or 3-parted; Ifts. broad 

 and woolly: fls. 8-9 in. across, with 8 broad, white sepals. Jeanne 

 d'Arc, Dauvesse. Same cross as last and much like it, but the sepals 

 are grayish white, with 3 blue bars down the center of each. Gloire 

 de St. Julien, CarrtL ( xC. patens var. plena). Plant much like C. 

 lanuginosa, but with larger fls.: sepals 6-8, white or pale gray at 

 first; stamens yellow. Gem, Baker (xC. Standishii). Lvs. 3-parted 

 or simple: fls. like C. lanuginosa in form; grayish blue. 



24. patens, Morr. & Decne. (C. cseridea, Lindl. C. 

 azurea, Hort., ex Turcz.). Taller and more slender, 

 and Ifts. smaller and narrower than C. lanuginosa: fls. 

 appearing on last year's branches on slender stalks 

 longer than the sepals, spreading; sepals about 8, 

 rather narrow, delicate lilac; stamens purple. Spring.

 B.R. 23:1955. P.M. 4:193. B. 3:126. H.B. 4:78. 

 R.H. 1856:261. Should be grown on a northern ex- 

 posure to preserve the color of the fls. It is almost as 

 prolific as C. lanuginosa in producing garden varieties 

 and hybrids, and it is the most likely of all to produce 

 double-fid, forms. Var. grandifldra, Davis (C. cseru- 

 lea var. grandiflora, Hook.). Fls. larger than the type. 

 B.M. 3983. Var. Standishii, Moore (C. Standishii, 

 Hort.). Fls. about 5 in. across; sepals light lilac-blue, 

 elliptic, of metallic luster: Ifts. 3, ovate, acuminate, 

 small. A fine variety from Japanese gardens flower- 

 ing profusely in spring. 



The following other garden varieties or crosses belong here: 

 Mrs. James Baker. Sepals nearly white, ribbed with dark 

 carmine. Miss Bateman, Noble. Fls. more compact than the type, 

 6 in. across; sepals ovate, shortly acuminate, pure white, with 

 cream-colored bars; anthers brown. Probably of hybrid origin; 

 allied to var. Standishii. Stella, Jackman. Fls. not so large as the* 

 last; sepals deep mauve, with a red bar down the center of each. 

 F.S. 22:2341. Amalia, Sieb. Sepals 6 or more, oblong-lanceo- 

 late, light lilac. From Japanese gardens. F.S. 10:1051. Lard 

 Lanesborough, Noble. Sepals bluish lilac, each with a metallic 

 purple bar. A good variety to gradually force to blossom in the 

 greenhouse by March. Lady Lanesborough, Noble. Sepals silver- 

 gray, the bar being lighter colored. It will blossom in March in 

 the greenhouse. Marie, Simon-Louis. Fls. darker than the type. 

 Mrs. G. Jackman, Jackman. Sepals blush-white with indistinct 

 wine-red bars. Gn. 16:128. The Queen, Jackman. Fls. rather com- 

 pact, the sepals being broader than the type. John Murray, 

 Jackman. Habit and foliage bolder than the type: fls. somewhat 

 later. Gn. 46:32. Fair Rosamond, Jackman. Sepals apiculate, 

 broader than the type, and of the same color. F.S. 22:2342. 

 Gn. 16:128. Countess of Lovelace, Jackman. Fls. double, blue- 

 violet; sepals much imbricated. In the second crop of blooms the 

 fls. are single, as is often the case in other double varieties. Albert 

 Victor, Noble. Fls. much like the type, but large and more compact. 

 Suitable for forcing under glass. Duchess of Edinburgh, Jackman. 

 *ls. double, white, strongly imbricated. Marcel Moser, Moser. 

 Jls. 7 m. across; sepals 8, mauve with a reddish violet bar. J
