It is most ap- propriately named, the color being a "cheerful" soft shade of Begonia-rose. The color is pure throughout with no other tints. Few varieties make such an imposing bunch as this great gem. The flowers combine immense size with good form. The standard is broad and well waved. The wings are also much frilled, and in size of the right proportion to the magnificent spreading stand- ard. The whole flower is all that could be desired. Cheerful is good under all conditions and lightens up to a most attractive bright- ness under artificial light. The substance of the flowers is thick and heavy, adding greatly to the keeping value after being cut. They are well placed iji fours on long stout stems. Cheerful is a good grow- er and bears a large crop of giant flowers on strong an;d healthy vines. The foliage is a rich deep green. Not only are the individual flower spikes most artistic but they make up into a delightful bunch. Cheerful was awarded a Certificate of Merit at the great International Flower Show, New York, 1921.
