Red Varieties
Madame Gaudichau (Millet).  8.8.  This variety is a strictly first-class red.  The color is a very dark crimson, and resembles M. Martin Cahuzac.  The flowers are large, loose, and stand the sun remarkably well.  It comes into bloom late mid-season.  Although this variety resembles Monsieur Martin Cahuzac in color, it is a much prettier plant.  The stems are red and the foliage of the plant both in the spring and again in the fall is of a dark reddish color.
