in growth with a larger flower and longer foot 
stafic, and for choice bouquets and cut flowers 
quite a gem. Strong plants in flower, 5s. each, 
smaller, 3s. each post or paclcing free. 
Extract from the Journal of Horticulture, 
March 9th, 1882. 
“ We send you one bloom of Swanley White 
Violet, received from the raiser in Italy ; this 
must be the best of all Whites,’ — so write 
Messrs. H. Cannell, and the flower we re- 
ceived is certainly by far the flnest of its 
Icind we have seen. It was exactly 1^ inches 
in diameter, and contained forty petals, im- 
bricated, and constituting a neat and well- 
formed flower.” 
Gardeners' Chronicle, March \%th, says ; 
“ Swanley White Violet is the flnest double 
white variety yet introduced.” 
The Garden, March 18(7t, also says .— 
“Violet Swanley White is the best of all 
the double whites.”
