Br.) consist 01 two distinctive types. single and double flowered forms. the letter containing no authors or pistils. and are. therefore. completely sterile and must he chained from heterozygous singles. Only the double flowering plants are desired by both florists and gardeners. Few problems in horticulture have been exposed to so many speculations as the possibility of increasing the number of Ibuhle flowering plants in a field of stocks. According to plumage}; (1955) about 20per est ofthe cost ofneldproductieeo! stocks. as cut flowers. is for seed because a: the techniques required to obtain seed that willproduce a satisfactory percentage of double flowers. it is a act that non-flersporting singles. plans which produce less theaflpercemotdoubles. occurin eversportinglines chats crossingover (km 1953).
