A magnificent class, dwarf, robust and compact in habit, 

 scarcely attaining a height of 12 inches. It branches very 

 freely, producing remarkably beautiful flowers on stout stems 

 and in great abundance. The individual flowers are 

 of enormous size, perfectly double and of great fullness, 

 the petals being broad and of massive substance, which 

 enables the flowers to withstand wet weather and last 

 longer in perfection than any other variety.
