without shadings. Flower large, on stiff, 



stout stems that hold the flowers erect, 



without support ; incurving, forming a large 



rounded surface; petals crisp and stiff; 



very free in growth, but not conrse. One 



of the finest yellows in cultiv.ntion.

 LiOllis Boehmer. Has the same remark- 

 able hair-like growth or excrescences that appeared for the first time in the white variety, " Mrs. Alpheus Hardy," but it 



differs from it in color, being a bemitiful shade of lavender pink. The flowers are splendidly incurved ; the inside of the 



petals are deep rose, so that the contrast between their inner and outer surfaces is very decided, and adds greatly to the 



appearance of the flowers.
