Press Opinions of Clibran's Prize Cinerarias : — 
“ They displayed a remarkable colouring, some pure seifs, 
rose, purple, (almost black, so deep was the shade), crimson, white, 
and white with crimson tips to the florets, while some have half of 
the florets covered with purple, rose, or other good shade. A 
delightful strain because the colours are fresh and decided.” — 
Country Life. 
“ This strain is remarkable for its robust habit as well as for its 
pure form and rich clear colours of the flowers produced. Ihey 
represent pure white, white and blue, white and purple, pale blue, 
mauve, dark blue, red, and crimson shades, the self-colours being 
especially rich and eifective.” — Gardener' s Magazine.
