(The Single Early-flowering Chrysanthemum is a very interesting 

 class, but want of time, and not lack of appreciation, prevents me from 

 dealing with it to-day as a separate item.) 



I have been told that too many selections were made in some of 

 the colours, but one must take into consideration what the grower 's 

 requirements are, and there is no one all-round variety. If I were 

 asked to name a white, I would say ' Caledonia ' for an exhibitor, 

 ' Tuckswood Early ' for garden display, ' Market White ' for cutting, 

 and 'Artemis' where a dwarf bedder was required. In yellows I 

 should select 'Polly' for an exhibitor, 'Elstob Yellow' for garden, 

 'Leslie' for cutting, 'Maggie ' for bedding, and so on. 



When I sent copies of the report to growers in the south, and 

 to the Horticultural Press, comments were freely made as to the 

 absence of this, that, or the other variety which does well in the south 

 of England, and for this I was quite prepared. The one variety which 

 every writer referred to was ' Roi des Blancs, ' a never-failing stand-by 

 in the south, but which has never to my knowledge done well in any 

 part of Scotland.
