NEW SCHIZANTHUS 
SUTTON’S PANSY-FLOWERED (DANBURY PARK STRAIN) 
The following is Sutton’s (England) description: “This new type of Schizanthus, which 
we had the pleasure of introducing in 1932, has become very popular. The large 
smooth-edged Pansy-flowered blooms are remarkably substantial, while the rich 
self-colors in all shades of pink, crimson, mauve, and purple as well as white, are 
extremely bright and attractive. The plants included in our Exhibit at the Chelsea 
Show in May last were very much admired; for this display we were awarded the 
Sherwood Cup for the Most Meritorious Exhibit in the Show, and the Royal Horti¬ 
cultural Society’s Gold Medal.”
