The term “cupped” is applaid in cases where the outer petals of the flower stand erect, or are slightly incurved, the petals within being in general of smaller size than the outer ones, the flower thus being a little hollow in the centre like a cup. Examples of this term: Madame Hardy (Damask), Coupe d’Hebe (Hybrid Bourbon), Auguste Mie, Beauty of Waltham, Louise Peyronny (Hybrid Perpetuals)
