A beautiful golden bronze with a faint touch of Nasturtium red and unsurpassed by any of the autumn tints as a cut flower. A free upright grower, long stiff, wiry stems hold the flowers well above the foliage in such a manner as to display their full beauty; it is one of the most prolific to flower, coming into bloom early and continuing in good condition to the end of the season; 75 cts. each.

A finely formed flower of large size, of a good sulphur-yellow, shading to lemon-yellow at the centre, continuing in good shape throughout the season.
