It is impossible for a full-orbed flower to come to its fullness the first year. A purchaser sent an angry letter to a dealer because Rubra Triumphans bloomed single the first year. He didn't buy singles, he wanted doubles, and nothing else. Now the ambitious plant, which is a ready bloomer, was anxious to do the best it could and so cut the coat according to the cloth. There was not material for a double one, and so it came single.
