Award of Merit. 



To Montanoa bipinnatifida (votes, 14 for, 7 against), from Messrs. 

 Paul & Son, Cheshunt. Introduced some sixty years ago, this is still a 

 rare plant, though its large loose panicles of white-rayed flower-heads 

 make a valuable addition to the cool greenhouse in winter. Height 

 4-8 feet ; leaves large, rough and strong, opposite, coarsely pinnatifid 

 or bipinnatifid ; flower-heads about 3 inches across. It is a good 

 foliage plant for the sub-tropical bed in summer. It should be lifted 

 and placed in the greenhouse about the end of September to flower.
