GRAND NEW IVY-LEAVED 
PELARGONIUM. 
QUEEN OF ROSES 
( See illustration). 
We have mu cl i pleasure iu introducing 
this superb variety, which we feel sure 
will soon become highly popular. It 
is a cross between G loirs d’Orleans 
and Madame Thibaut, and combines 
the high-class qualities of both those 
varieties. The flowers are very large, 
2i to 3 inches across, perfectly double, 
of splendid form and substance, and 
of the most beautiful rosy crimson 
carmine colour. The flowers retain 
their beauty for a much longer period 
than most other varieties, as the petals 
do not fall, but gradually wither and 
dry on the plants, when they are easily 
picked off. It is very free flowering, 
and being of a strong vigorous habit 
of growth is admirably suited for 
training on trellises, hanging baskets, 
pots, vases, &o. Some cut blooms of 
this were exhibited at the Royal 
Horticultural Society’s Show, London, 
in July last, and were very much 
admired.
