CHRYSANTHEMUM SPORTS. 



The reasons for a plant proiiucing 

 sports are difficult to understand. A 

 week or two since I observed in a trade 

 paper an enquiry from a market grower 

 respecting the reason why nearly one-half 

 of his stock of the Golden Yellow Horace 

 Martin, a sport from Marie Masse, had 

 produced pink flowers? The season previ- 

 ous his stock of several hundred plants 

 was quite true. He planted this season 

 2,000 with the above result. A large 

 number of growers will be sadly disap- 

 pointed over the sport of Mrs, Barkley 

 sent out as Lady Cranston. The white- 

 flowered sport appeared in 1902, and the 

 stock last season was eight plants all 

 true to the sport. The form of the flo'- 

 ers was entirely changed, and they were 

 pure white or prettily but slightly flushed 

 on the crown (not the centrej with clear 

 rose-pink. It was certificated by the Na- 

 tional Chrysanthemum Society and the 

 Koyal Horticultural Society's floral com- 

 mittees, and also awarded the (silver 

 medal by the Scottish Horticultural So- 

 ciety, as the best novelty. All who saw 

 the blooms were charmed with them, and 

 there was a keen competition for the 

 stock. But, alas and alack! the whole 

 stock seems to have reverted to the orig- 

 inal Mrs. Barkley, for out of my stock 

 of about 100 very fine plants not a white 

 flower has appeared, and other growers 

 complain of the same thing. It is much 

 to be regretted. — W. J. Godfrey, in Gard- 

 eners' Chronicle.
