Sentences with MATTHIOLA (5)
Many annuals come true: thus I purchased German seeds of thirty-four named sub-varieties of one _race_ of ten-week stocks (_Matthiola annua_), and raised a hundred and forty plants, all of which, with the exception of a single plant, came true.
Analogous facts have been observed with plants: Major Trevor Clarke crossed the little, glabrous-leaved, annual stock (Matthiola), with pollen of a large, red-flowered, rough-leaved, biennial stock, called _cocardeau_ by the French, and the result was that half the seedlings had glabrous and the other half rough leaves, but none had leaves in an intermediate state.
Thus the varieties of the stock (Matthiola) have been selected solely for the beauty of their flowers, but the seeds differ greatly in colour and somewhat in size.
This plant has entirely the habit, and in many important points the structure of Matthiola, near which in a strictly natural method it must be placed; differing, however, in having incumbent cotyledons, and in the mucous covering of its seeds.
Stocks.—The Ten-weeks and the biennial or Brompton stocks (species of _Matthiola_) are found in nearly all old-fashioned gardens.
