ALBUM ELEGANS.—Light blush fading to white and marked with yellow at throat. Of strong up- right habit. ALBUM GKANDIFLORUM.—Large white flowers shaded with blush. A strong grower and a very free bloomer, ANNIE PARSONS.—Rich soft red. American origin, very hardy and a grand variety. CAEACTACUS.—Rich purplish-crim- son; large and showy; free bloomer. CHAS.
