The First White Watsonia 



The original 'white Watsonia was found as a "sport" in 



the midst of beds of Watsonias of ordinary color, in South 



Africa. The specimen became the progenitor of an entire race of 



white Watsonias, so individual as to be considered by 



botanists as a distinct variety. Mr. Burbank has of 



course used the white Watsonias along with the 



others in his crossbreeding experiments.
