The several varieties that come within the scope of this section 

 are remarkable for the gorgeousiiess of their flowers, which are 

 exceptionally large and of the most brilliant hues. They are late 

 flowering, and are not usually at their best until the middle or the 

 end of Stay. The only fault of any moment is that of having 

 flowers too large for the strength of the stems, which renders it 

 somewhat difficult for the full beauty of the blooms to be appreciated 

 unless each one is accorded a small stake.

 they are so strikingly handsome that one can scarcely afford to 

 exclude them from the garden. They produce a flower which has 

 much of the character of the Darwin section ; indeed, one may 

 assume that they are closely allied to each other.
