— Star of 1 891. Childs. 



T*he habit is very dwarf, but with full fine foliage, and it has a per- 

 sistent habit of throwing up fresh sprouts from the base. Every 

 sprout produces a flower-spike, which in its turn becomes many- 

 branched, each branch bearing from 12 to 17 blossoms, each blossom 

 4 to 5 inches wide, and each petal 1% inches broad. The color of 

 the flowers is glowing orange-scarlet, faintly banded with golden yel- 

 low, and the plants, from small to large specimens, are perpet- 

 ually in bloom. The plant was raised from Crozy Prize Seed by a 

 Mr. Catlin of Virginia. He sent it to Wm. Falconer, who grew it in 

 a pot over winter, and its size, profusion and brillancy of bloom at 

 once attracted attention. Mr. Childs bought the stock.
