Press Opinions of Clibrans' 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. 
They 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 effective.'' — Gardeners’ Magazine.
