  Because 
  of 
  such 
  unusual 
  size, 
  often 
  2 
  inches 
  and 
  more 
  across, 
  waved 
  or 
  fluted 
  appearance 
  

   and 
  charming 
  blendings 
  of 
  harmonious 
  colors, 
  the 
  new 
  Spencer 
  Type 
  may 
  be 
  appropriately 
  

   described 
  as 
  Truly 
  Gigantic 
  "Orchid-Flowered." 
  The 
  flowers 
  are 
  not 
  only 
  of 
  extremely 
  large 
  

   size, 
  but 
  are 
  distinct 
  in 
  having 
  the 
  outer 
  edges 
  of 
  the 
  standard 
  and 
  wings 
  beautifully 
  crumpled 
  

   or 
  waved, 
  the 
  tissue 
  being 
  so 
  full 
  that 
  there 
  is 
  not 
  room 
  for 
  it 
  to 
  lie 
  flatly 
  expanded 
  or 
  

   smoothly 
  rolled. 
  The 
  standard 
  is 
  broad 
  and 
  tall; 
  the 
  wings 
  are 
  broad, 
  well 
  spread 
  and 
  held 
  

   erect 
  by 
  the 
  keel. 
  

  

  Bolgiano's 
  Ten 
  Superb 
  New 
  Spencers 
  

  

  TVe 
  have 
  selected 
  what 
  we 
  consider 
  the 
  ten 
  best 
  and 
  most 
  distinct 
  kinds 
  introduced 
  prior 
  

   to 
  1315, 
  which 
  we 
  offer 
  below. 
  

  

  They 
  are 
  a 
  great 
  improvement 
  on 
  the 
  standard 
  sorts, 
  having 
  large, 
  round 
  open 
  flowers 
  

   of 
  extraordinary 
  size, 
  measuring 
  two 
  inches 
  and 
  over 
  across, 
  with 
  wavy 
  standards 
  and 
  

   wide-spreading 
  wings, 
  a 
  very 
  large 
  percentage 
  bearing 
  four 
  of 
  these 
  immense 
  blossoms 
  to 
  

   the 
  stem, 
  which 
  is 
  long 
  and 
  strong, 
  making 
  them 
  of 
  exceptional 
  value 
  for 
  cutting, 
  and 
  are 
  

   just 
  as 
  easy 
  to 
  grow 
  as 
  the 
  standard 
  varieties.
