New Qiant=flowered Althea 

 WILLIAM R. SMITH 



Everyone will be pleased with this splendid new variety; one of 

 our own introductions named in honor of the late William R. 

 Smith who for over a half century was superintendent of the 

 Botanical Gardens at Washington, D. C. . 



The habit of the plant is ideal, naturally forming attractive, 

 symmetrical, bushy specimens, while the glistening pure white 

 flowers are of giant size compared to all other sorts, being fully 

 4 inches in diameter under ordinary cultivation, and open out flat 

 or salver-shaped quite different from the older types which only 

 partially expand; these large, showy flowers are produced in great 

 profusion from early in July until late in September, and are very 

 conspicuous at a period when comparatively few Shrubs are in 



Two-year-old field grown plants, 18 to 24 inches high.
