Each of the petals is about an inch and a half in diameter, much 
undulated, and recurved at the edges. When the flowers have been 
sometime open, they measure nearly three inches in expansion, and, 
although generally of a white colour, yet they are not unfrequently 
striped, or spotted with red. The cup, or column of stamina, with pale 
coloured filaments, and deep yellow anthers, is the same as in the single 
red already described. 
Within the last few years, it has been ascertained to produce seed 
freely, and several very fine double varieties, with different coloured 
flowers, have originated from it.
