CINEKAP.IA IlYBUIDA DOUBLE. 
CINERARIAS. 
I iierodible as it may appear, yet it is a fact ■well known to many who often visit .Swanley, and thj 
Floral Committee, that we have brought many flowers — Cinerarias in particular to such a size and. 
perfection that if we were not able to insert extracts from Editor s of the various gardening periodicals, 
it would be unwise to attempt describing and illustrating them ; and even then it is a nuestioii 
whether it is hot impolitic to do so, for all know things are at times exaggerated. Mr. w . u. Smith 
preiiared the wood engraving (page 236) under the actual size of the pip taken from the plant yictmy, 
.shown at Kensington, and it was pronounced by all to be the finest Cineraria ever seen there. In 
April and May we cordially invite all to see our 100-tt. house, specially for seeding. (See Catalogue,- 
page fO.) 
Gardeners' Chrmiicle, April 1882. 
Double Cinerarias. — “ The varieties ft-om Messrs. Cannell appeared nearly perfect, and to 
improve them in size "Wiil seem something like spoiling them.” 
Gardeners' Magazine, April 1st, 1882. 
“ Messrs. H. Cannell shoived Cineraria ( Victanj), a superb variety, the flowers 2^ inches in. 
diameter, very stout in substance, a perfect form, and of a rich magenta-crimson colour. 
Gardeners' Magazine, March 18Wi, 1882. 
Messrs. H. Cannell & Sons exhibited a large group of specimen Cinerarias that atoi- 
rably represented the Swanley strain, which is unquestionably one of the very flnest in 
existence, the plants being compact, and the flowers of large size and the flnest possible 
form. In the collection was a flme sample of March Past, awarded a First Class Certificate’ 
last year, and still regarded as the most perfect Cineraria yet raised.”
