Kingsmill, but smaller. A very dainty well-shaped 
flower with long straight gun-barrel trumpet of light 
lemon-yellow, 1J inches deep. Much overlapping, 
lemon white segments. Rather a dwarf grower but of 
very good constitution. M.S. — — 
Cliloe Raised by T. Batson, Esq., this fine variety created 
the greatest surprise and delight at the 1908 Birmingham 
Show, where it was the only flower that gained an A.M. 
The following Press notices help to confirm our opinion 
that this is unquestionably the finest Triandrus hybrid 
yet seen.

pure white perianth, measuring 4J inches across, pale 
lemon trumpet with a distinct narrow white edge round

hybrid, and are glad to say that it has proved quite 
fertile. The plant is a perfectly healthy grower. M.S. — —
