The colour of the flowers of this section is often described as "rose," 

 but it is of a harder tone than can be admitted under that term. 



With a few exceptions, which are treated separately in the descrip- 

 tions, the bases are of a more or less circular indeterminate blue 

 and white rayed type, of which that represented in Fig. 6 may be 

 taken as an average.
