McGredy's Pride.  Good growth. with splendid foliage; nicely shaped blooms of good colour and size. This variety has done well and shows exceptional promise. It should have a good future.

McGredy's Pride, HT. (McGredy 1936) A large fairly full flower with 40 long narrow petals. This character appears in several of the recent introductions and is a factor to be reckoned with.   In the past, hybridists have aimed at long, broad petals, which build up a more lasting bloom, and any departure from this ideal must cause general regret. It would be interesting to know from what variety this narrow petal descends, as it was not a feature of the genuine hybrid tea before the advent of the Pernetiana.

McGredy's Pride, H.T. (S. McGredy and Sons).—A novel combination of colour, mostly orange and salmon pink. The flowers are very large, although only 20 petals, and are most effective when fully open. The stems are long and general habit very good.
