Of the colour reproduction, T.W. Girdlestone writes: "In the accompanying plate the colour in course of printing has become far deeper than in the original drawing, although the form and mode of growth of the buds are well preserved. The normal disposition of tints is best seen in the lowest bud, but throughout if the lighter parts were yellowish white, and the fuller coloured parts proportionately paler, the more general appearance of the flower would be realised even from the abnormally deep-coloured example here shown."
The plate was reprinted with the colour reproduction corrected in the following volume of The Garden - see also HMF photos.
