The Garden, April 18th, 1908. 
The collection staged by Messrs. Cartwright and Goodwin was noticeable 
for two reasons, iirst. because they are a “ brand new ” firm, and, if I mistake 
not, this was their maiden appearance in public ; and, secondly, because 
they had nearly twenty pots of different varieties as well as a beautiful little 
lot of cut blooms. It was an excellent start and richly deserved the silver 
Banksian medal which the committee awarded it. It is evident they have 
got hold of some exceptionally good things. Mervyn (mentioned before) is 
a real “show table” flower, and it will be interesting to see it when cut 
from the open ground ; it is a cross between Emperor ami Tenby, and early. 
Evangeline in the centre was a flower worthy of the place of honour. It 
was a white Homespun, but it had a pale yellow cup. This is Irish, but I 
think it describes what I mean. Felicity, White Lady, Citron, Alton Locke, 
Glitter and Glory of Noordwijk were some of the others in this fresh-looking 
group. I must congratulate the new firm on their start, 
Joseph Jacob.
