LARGE POMPONS FOR DISBUDDING 
This section consists of varieties resulting from 
crossing the large flowering type with the pompons. 
In most instances they are not very suitable when 
grown naturally to sprays as the flowers are arranged 
so compact as to detract from the gracefulness) 
which makes pompons so popular. 
They are more serviceable when the plants are per¬ 
mitted to make several growths and then disbudded 
to produce one bloom each. This course gives very 
perfectly formed flowers, as is shown by the illus¬ 
tration.
