GODETIA. 
carters’ beautiful GODETIA, GLORIOSA (sn Opposite page). 
1 he care and culture bestowed upon Godetias have produced some marvellous varieties, far 
exceeding in size of blossom and brilliance of colouring the older kinds The appended 
selection contains the most approved sorts of the present day. Perhaps there is no 
class of flower producing more abundant blossom. The habit of the species is 
excellent, and the glossy silky texture of the petals is worthy of inspection. The 
crystal beauty of Godetia Lady Satin Jiose and Gloriosa is remarkable. The Godetia 
makes an excellent cut flower, a spike of half-opened buds continuing to develop for 
a long time if fresh supplies of water be given daily. It also makes an effective pot 
plant for the conservatory stage when sown at end of summer and kept growing through 
the winter in a cool house.
