that complete rotundity so dear to the florist. The colour of 
the upper petals is a very dense maroon, almost approaching to 
black, with a bright carmine margin. The lower petals are bright 
pinkish-scarlet, veined and painted with dark crimson. Besides 
these, there have been exhibited Profusion, very free blooming 
rosy-scarlet; Sunny Memories , orange-scarlet; Mary Hoyle , very 
large and bright, with good white centre; this is likely to be a 
very useful flower, although not of the high quality of the 
flowers figured. There are other seedlings of the same raiser, 
which have passed into Mr. Charles Turner’s hands, from whose 
nursery they will be distributed in the course of the present 
autumn.
