All lovers of these speak of Phenomenal as the King of the Doubles, by its strong growth, fine 
habit,' and the gigantic flowers it produces, claiming everyone's admiration on account of the rich 
colouring of the corolla. It has been our good fortune to come into possession of two sports 
from this wonderful variety, and which we now offer to the public, viz.. Rose Phenomenal 
and White Phenomenal, the corolla of the former, instead of as in the original, being of a bright 
bluish-mauve, comes a light rose colour of quite a new tint ; the second and last sport has pure 
white corollas, and in both cases they retain the same growth, habit, foliage, and also same freeness 
in flowering, as the parent.
