THE FLORIST. 
§ 6. Flowers white. 
97- Auber Henderson.—From Mr. Scott. Dwarf; leaves slight 
zonate; flowers white, of tolerably good form. It is now surpassed by 
other white varieties. 
98. Boule de Neige.—From Mr. Turner. Moderately vigorous 
habit; leaves distinctly zonate ; flowers small, of good form, white. 
A good variety, but interior to Madame Yaucher. 
99. Lady Turner.—From Mr. Scott. Moderately dwarf habit; 
leaves distinctly zonate, white. Not well developed. 
100. Madame Vaucher.—From Messrs. Low & Co. Medium 
habit; leaves distinctly zonate ; flowers of moderate size, well formed, 
produced in compact trusses, white. This was adjudged to be one of 
the best white sorts. 
101. Miss Emily Field.—From Mr. Scott. Dwarf; leaves faintly 
zoned ; flowers blush-white. Inferior. 
102. Niveum floribundum.—From Messrs. Rollisson & Sons. Dwarf; 
leaves with distinct dark zone ; flowers in medium-sized compact 
trusses, well formed, white. A good white variety, but not considered 
equal to Madame Yaucher. 
The following sorts did not produce flowers:— 
103. Amy Robsart.—From Messrs. Rollisson & Sons. Dwarf; 
leaves slightly zonate. 
104. Iraperatrice Eugenie.—From Messrs. Low & Co. Medium 
habit; leaves with a distinct narrow zone. 
105. Premiere.—From Messrs. Rollisson & Sons. Vigorous and 
coarse habit; leaves distinctly zonate. 
106. Royalist.—From Messrs. Fraser. Leaves indistinctly zoned. 
Berks III.— Nosegay Pelargoniums. 
107- Bishopstowe Nosegay.—From Mr. Taylor. Vigorous; leaves 
large, faintly zonate; flowers rosy-crimson, in large bold trusses. It 
is a good large growing sort, but was considered rather coarse. 
108. Crystal Palace.—From Mr. Taylor. Dwarf and compact; 
leaves •prettily marked with a narrow distinct dark zone ; flowers small, 
pink. The flowers were not well developed, but its dwarf habit and 
very pretty foliage are sufficient to recommend it as a desirable variety 
in this section. 
109. Frewer’s Nosegay. From Mr. Taylor. Medium compact 
habit; leaves zoned; flowers small, rose-coloured, in small trusses, 
which are not well filled. 
110. Imperial Crimson.—From Mr. Turner. Medium habit; 
leaves faintly zoned; flowers loose, produced in moderate-sized heads, 
deep rosy-crimson. One of the best of the nosegay section. 
111. Model Nosegay.—From Mr. Turner. Vigorous habit; leaves 
faintly zoned; flowers loose, in large heads, rose-colour. This was 
considered too coarse in habit. 
112. Pink Nosegay.—From Mr Taylor and Messrs. Fraser. 
Medium habit; leaves neatly zonate ; flowers large, bright rose, in 
moderate-sized trusses. This is a fine variety, with flowers larger than 
in any other Nosegay variety grown in the collection.
