they grow about 2 feet high, are healthy and stocky, and completely enveloped with large flowers 
of splendid texture and substance, rendering them very durable under all conditions of weather; 
their continuous-blooming qualities, ease of culture and independence of heat and drought, and 
pure, bright colors, should entitle them to a permanent place in gardens. Although perennials, they

the older sorts. {See cut.)
