Wee Man ('Little Flirt' x 'Marlena'). This is the fascinating robust miniature, by Sam McGredy, which I described last year as TG No. 2260. It was so healthy and promising in 1972 that I had ear-marked it for a Gold Medal but it succumbed suddenly to black spot a year later. In spite of this I can still recommend it for window-box cultivation in cities, where the industrial atmosphere should keep the foliage healthy.

McGredy has an eye-catching variety bred from 'Little Flirt' and 'Marlena' named Wee Man. No doubt we shall be seeing much more of this miniature of brilliant scarlet colouring.

T.G. No. 2260. A fascinating robust miniature, by Sam McGredy, with non-fading, semi-double, flat flowers of a bright flame red. Health is excellent and habit so compact that I would recommend a trial of this cultivar for a window-box cultivation in cities. This is perhaps the most interesting seedling of its year and one which I will certainly buy myself as soon as it is available.
