Other mutants appeared in these cultures in different proportions, as usual. Among the seeds of pure 0. Lamarckiana, 0. cana is much the rarer. In 1913 I fertilized, on 5 strong biennial specimens, almost all the flowers during two months and got sufficient seed to have 20,000 seedlings in 1914. Of these only 6 were cana, giving a per- centage of per cent. In the same boxes 7 rubrinervis and 5.
