Sherry  Florib. (McGredy, 1960) A new colour - it would be a very dark sherry - more like port or claret. Some may regard it as dull; others will enthuse. Single florets with thick petals and gay yellow stamens are borne in particles of anything from five to fifteen. Free flowering and fairly vigorous.

Sherry (McGredy, 1960). A particularly intense colour, described as dark red sherry. This is something completely new and we can only describe it as an outstanding Novelty. The bush is of compact growth and produces masses of quality blooms which will make it ideal as a specimen or massed bedding effect.

The following have been imported, but as they have not bloomed yet we can give only the raiser's descriptions.
Sherry (McGredy 1960) Rich dark sherry is the only way the raiser can describe the colour of this outstanding novelty. Something completely new.
