The leaves are large, bronzy green ; the margins crumpled and wavy, with dentate edge. Nymphasa Frank Trelease is the deepest colored of its class, the flower being a brilliant glowing dark crimson, measuring from eight to ten inches across. The stamens are deep reddish brown. The leaves are extra large, from fifteen to eighteen inches across, of a beautiful dark bronze color; the under side is greenish brown. This variety is similar to Nymphjea Devoniensis in the form^ of the flower, but not so free in blooming, in which quality it is rather NYMPHAEA BISSETI-A New Hybrid I Tender Night Flowering l| I Nymphaea Bisseti (Bisset) is another pink flower, of beautiful form, the j result of a cross between Nymphaea dentata and Nymphsa Sturtevanti. The j flowers measure from eight to ten inches across, are of a beautiful rose pink color, j the petals being extra wide, slightly concave, forming a cup shaped bloom. The stamens are deep orange colored; the leaves deep bronzy green above, the under side brownish green with dark brown spots. The plant is very free in flower and growth. Nymphaea Kewensis produces light pink flowers, from six to eight inches across. The leaves are dark green, slightly bronzed with a few spots of deep brown. There is a doubt of this being the true Nymphsa Kewensis. [87].
