performance in the garden. The dense 
bushy plant is covered with small leathery 
foliage of fine green quality and it is fes- 
tooned with a continuous and unparalleled 
profusion of flowers. The double flowers 
are medium sized semi- double with spread- 
ing, glistening white petals and upturned 
horizontal sepals of palest rose deepening 
into Crimson (HCC 22/1) at their base. The 
short tube is Crimson. Buds are greenish 
white. The growth is dense and branching 
with exceptional small foliage. Sparkling 
and much admired. Easy. 
LA BIANCA (Tiret, Pat.) — Single white, se- 
pals white, tipped green, medium flowers. 
LACE PETTICOATS (Tiret) Patent applied-for. 
Double corolla white, ‘tube and broad, 
heavy, outspread sepals white. Corolla is 
composed of large central petals, surround- 
ed by smaller ones that are attached to the 
base of the sepals and so are spread out 
horizontally as the sepals curve up. Most 
petals are serrated. Inside of sepals and 
petols are faintly shot with palest blush, 
enhancing an otherwise all-white large 
double fuchsia. Quite vigorous, willowy 
upright grower. In the warmer sections 
flowers will show more pink, unless the 
plant is in shade. Especially fine in the 
cooler regions. 
MRS. LAWRENCE LYONS (Reiter, Jr.) — A 
sport of Nonpareil which has the same su- 
perlative characteristics of growth and 
foliage as its precursor. It differs from 
Nonpareil only in color which is in the rose 
magenta range (officially pale Fuchsia 
Purple HCC 28/2). The color changes 
occurring in ageing flowers are in intensity 
only and the plant never displays the faded 
look common to the old variety Nonpareil. 
A perfect hanger, climber or bush and 
should be in every collection. Good, easy, 
recommended.
