Two other varieties worthy of mention are Ellen Poulsen and Lady Reading, the latter being a sport of the other. It is hardly
necessary to go into details of these, because Ellen Poulsen is already so widely grown that it has obviously proved its worth, and Lady Reading is identical, except as to colour. The two varieties work excellently in combination with one another.

Lady Reading is another that, because of its free blooming quality, lends itself readily for hedge purposes. In growth it is very similar to Ellen Poulsen, but the flowers are bright red.
