IN THE FRONT YARD. 235 



lightly edged with pink. Very late and one of the very 

 best. 



Madam Breon — There are two flowers bearing this 

 name. One, outer petals rosy pink; pale yellow cen- 

 ter, changing to white; and the other is fine, shapely, 

 solid crimson. This latter was sent out by T. C. Thur- 

 low. 



Magnifica — Described by Kelway as delicate pink, 

 turning to blush white ; large, full and free. That usu- 

 ally sent under this name is nearer red, turning to pink. 



Magnificent — Is a medium sized flow^er and fragrant. 

 It is of the pink, cream and gold order, with drops of 

 carmine. Much like Triumph de Paris, only smaller. 



Madonna — Outer petals rose, center creamy chamois. 



Moonbeam — Is one of Kelway's newer ones. Large, 

 white, tufted in the center. 



Mme. Schmidt — One of Paillet's; is rosy, lightly 

 tinted white, large flower; does well in I^Tebraska. 



Marie — Is white, in light rose tints. 



Maxima — Is white, with short petals. 



ISTymph — ^ew. It opens a single flower, with white 

 petals. It has a pond lily fragrance. In the center 

 are incurved snow-white petals and these are dotted 

 with crimson, making it a most attractive flower. Lat- 

 er, the inner petals expand, forming another perfect 

 flower sitting in the lap of the first, separated by several 

 rows of stamens. It continues in bloom a long time, 

 and it is a delight to watch its varying forms of loveli- 

 ness.
