 often measuring twelve inches La diameter. It makes a compact, 

 dense growth, and has all the qualities that go to make the per- 

 fect bedder that it is. Fine also in pois. It is of the semi-double 

 type, the most striking of aU, only the double form takes place 

 near the base of the petals, allowing them free development and 

 at the same time sho^ving the semi-double type. It embodies all

 blooming qualities of the .singles, the fullness and beauty of the 

 doubles, without the great fault of having the florets damp and 

 di-op off and become unsightly when planted outside. I have an
