the petals have a broad border of rosy-purple, margined with 
a narrow line of white; eye large and dense. Mrs. Bombrain 
(Fig. 2) is a pale-yellow, somewhat rough on the edges, but 
with a very large eye and spot of deep purplish-black, radiated, 
and with deep orange centre. Mrs. JR. Bectn (Fig. 3) is a pure 
white, with large dense eye and spot of violet-purple, shading 
off to a lighter tint of the same colour. Mrs. Scott (Fig. 4) has 
a pale cream-coloured ground, the petals being all margined 
with brilliant violet-purple, shading off lighter to the inner 
margin, the eye and spot being of the same colour, with a deep 
orange centre. Both the growers named have many other va¬ 
rieties coming out this autumn. We should add that Mrs. 
Bombrain has received a certificate from the Floral Committee 
of the Royal Horticultural Society.
