Hydransaa MM*, d* Tramault. 



Mile, de Tremault. As the result of onr own trials we are convinced that 

 this variety, which is yet but little known, is the best very large flowered 

 white yet introduced. As free flowering as any, of splendid erect habit 

 and beautiful foliage, It will produce flower heads as large as the old 

 popular Otaksa. We strongly recommend it.
