This is a sport, having originated in Italy from the very popular and well-known Marie Louise. Hallock, Son & Thorpe have grown this for nearly two years, and say that it is in every way equal to its parent, having the same growth, the same freedom of flowering, the same perfume, and the individual flowers are equally as large and of the purest white. This will offer quite a new feature in the use of this very popular flower, as it can be used in all designs and decorations where the purple violet is objectionable, especially for use in wedding bouquets, for the hand, corsage or personal decoration. This must not be confounded with any white violet previously offered, as it is truly perpetual, whereas other kinds flower for a period of a few weeks only.
