A florist makes the assertion that
blue rose is among the impossibilities,
but while an explanation of this curl
Gus fact may be equally impossible, he
fails to mention very interesting law
which governs the coloring of all flow
ers. A knowledge of this law would
save many flower growers hours of
unavailing and foolish hope. The law
is simply this: The three colors, red,
!, blue and yellow, never all appear in
the same species of flowers; and two
may exist, but never the third. Thus
we have red and yellow roses, but no
: blue; red and blue verbenas, but no
yellow; yellow and blue in the various
| members of the violet family Gas pan
sizes, for instance), but nored; red and
yellow gladioli, but no blue, and so on.
