JOURNAL OF HORTICULTURE AND COTTAGE GARDENER 
[ April 8, 18S6. 
met with in any other flowers with which I am acquainted. 
The yellows, it is true, are nearly always bright and clear in 
tone, but as soon as we come to the different shades of red 
the matter becomes far lees easy. In the trade catalogues 
we meet with “bright crimsons,” “rich crimsons,” and 
“ velvety crimsons,” to say nothing of “violets,” “ mauves,” 
“ pinks,” and even “ scarlets,” colours which naturally 
suggest far more vivid tints than they are intended to 
represent. Even in my own descriptions, which have been 
obtained from the National Chrysanthemum Society’s Cata¬ 
logue, and introduced here in order to enable those un¬ 
acquainted with the different varieties to make a selection of 
the best sorts in different shades of colour, I must request 
the reader to remember that whenever the words, rose, pink, 
crimson, purple, mauve, &c., are used, to picture to them¬ 
selves, in most cases, only dull and very subdued tints of 
such colours. 
Before finally quitting these incurved and Japanese 
varieties, it may be well to mention that I am informed that 
both Lady Harding and Mrs. Sharp are in all old Chrysan¬ 
themum lists spelt without the final e, usually found appended 
to their names in most modern catalogues. 
If arranged in the same way as in the above lists, the 
reflexed varieties would dispose themselves in the following 
order—viz.: 1, Cloth of Gold; 2, Golden Christine; 3, 
Crimson King; 4, Peach Christine; 5, Phidias; 6, Pink 
Christine; 7, White Christine; 8, Cullingfordi; and 9, 
Felicity. Of the new Japanese Anemones, the most fre¬ 
quently shown were'—1, Soeur Dorothea Souille; 2, Fabian 
de Mediana (Fabias de Maderanaz); and 3, Madame Cabrol. 
I should have liked to have inserted here the best of the 
Pompons, but these were staged so far back that I was unable 
to obtain a complete list of the varieties exhibited.—E. M., 
Berhhamsted.
