White Star (J. C. Williams) Raised from a 
cross between Princess Mary (seed) and 
Poeticus Horace, effected in 1899, this flower is 
remarkable in that it is very rare to see even 
bad flowers of this lineage with such an 
absence of colour. The plant is of strong 
healthy growth, with stout and erect ribbed 
stalks. The whole flower measures 4$ inches 
across, each segment being 2 inches long and 
1J inches wide at its broadest part. The seg- 
ments are half-rounded, slightly incurving, and 
of immense substance ; the colour pure 
glistening white. The shallow crown is 
crinkled and plaited, 1} inches wide, bright 
greenish-lemon with a rich citron eye. The 
raiser has seedlings growing both by its seed 
and pollen so that its fertility is proved. First 
Prize in Seedling Class and A.M., Truro, 1909. 
“The Garden, ” May 8th, 1909: — ‘‘Probably 
the most beautiful novelty in the whole show. 
It is a large Incomparabilis with long incurving 
and overlapping perianth segments of a solid 
white, and a well-proportioned soft yellow cup. 
It is well named as it has a beautiful star-like 
appearance." 
Also figured in “The Garden,” June 12th 1909.
