GIGANTEA. This so-called variety is a synonym of the well known variety " Lamartine," originated by Calot in 1860. " Gigantea " has suddenly appeared in the trade from unknown sources since 1900.
"Dr. Bretonneau" (Verdier) has also been found masquerading under the name of " Gigantea."

HABID. This so-called variety is a synonym of the well known variety "Lamartine," originated by Calot in 1860. "Habid" has suddenly appeared in the trade from unknown sources since 1900.

ADDITIONAL NOTES AND CORRECTIONS TO DESCRIPTIONS IN BULLETIN 278
Lamartine, page 288. Should be classed a rose type bloom, uniform color throughout, rather than " guards and collar fading rose white." [There is another Lamartine. Introduced by Lemoine in 1908. Deep violet rose with wide silvery border. Very tall. Rose type. — B. H. Farr.]
" Gigantea " and " Habid " should be added as synonyms.
