Their somber and remarkable colors place them distinctly in a 
class by themselves. Every lover of rich pastel shades cannot fail to 
revel in the gorgeous and artistic blendings of purple and old gold, 
bronze and terra cotta, brown and violet, and buff and maroon found 
among the Breeders. The flowers are, many of them, sweet scented, 
and all splendid for cutting.
