BOTH, THE LATE EDGAR ALFRED BERNARD (TED BOTH), 1900-1962. (I.S.R.C.)

AUSTRALIA

FLINDERS PARK, SOUTH AUSTRALIA

We introduce this large section with an account of the life and work of the late Ted Both - the great hybridist whose creations have done more, so far, than anyone else to put Australia on the map in the pelargonium world, and whose name will always be remembered along with those of outstanding international fame in Horticulture. For the following information, we are indebted to his widow, the late Mrs. Ada L. Both and the South Australian Geranium & Pelargonium Society Inc., in whose March, 1987 Journal this article appeared -

"EDGAR ALFRED BERNARD BOTH was born on April 20th, 1900, at Eudunda a country town approximately 68 miles north of Adelaide, South Australia. He was of Nordic ancestry, hence his tall figure and pale blue eyes. His, father was a Master Builder and Architect who was born in Schleswig, Holstein, North Germany, and who finished his education in Berlin, and his mother was Australian born, of German parents in South Australia.

Mr. Both was educated at the local school at Eudunda and finished at the Kapunda High School. He also did a course in Accountancy. In his school days, it seemed he always had to he up to some mischief, for instance, I remember him telling the story of an evening when, finishing his homework, he tied the school bell to a rather high tree bough. In the night a terrific wind came up and the school bell rang and rang, bringing out many, if not all of the residents of the town, along with the local Fire Brigade. Next morning, he was chosen to climb to the top of the bell tower and cut the string, for which job he was paid threepence.

His mother had a great love of flowers and must have passed it on to her son, because a love for them he certainly did have. Her flowers and pot plants, grown to perfection, appeared each year at the town's local Show. My late husband had told me many stories of her flower growing, and I do believe he used to help her take them to these Shows before he ever went to school. His reward was a book on creating new and unusual flowers, a "hybridising book". On one occasion his mother's Hippeastrums did not bloom, and she asked him why. He said he didn't know, but one day he would find out - which, in the years to come, he did.

He had an inquisitive, active and inventive mind; if there was anything he wanted to know, he would not rest till he had solved the problem, and whatever he did, he did properly. His flowers! Well, if only he had been spared a few more years, his pelargoniums would have been perfection completely. 1 believe he first showed geraniums about 1905, with the help of his mother. From that time on he always grew a few zonals and regals. In the ten years prior to his death, he grew many of all the pelargonium groups and imported from all around the world. He would sit and browse through catalogues and books and choose from descriptions. Sometimes he was very pleased with his choice, sometimes disappointed - nevertheless he seemed to find some use for most of them in his breeding. I have known him to sit at night for as long as eight hours (after everyone had gone to bed) working out his crosses for the next day or two. Only on very rare occasions did a cross go astray - that is, produce something different from what he meant it to be - and I have known him to do the same cross again and again, till he got it right; sometimes it took him three years. His life's ambition was to produce blue and gold flowers in the zonals, and he expected to succeed in 1966. Unfortunately, I did not always have the time to work with him, and the little I did learn was not enough for me to go on with his work and improve even one; hence the full-stop, my regrets. I hope and trust that somewhere, and in the near future, someone will prove to have the ability. I am sure there must be somebody.

We started our little nursery in 1929, first prior to our marriage (and although at the time he was the manager of a Hardware store in the City of Adelaide) with the idea of earning enough from the nursery to pay for our house, and as the years went by and our family grew to six, our Business grew enormously. In the glasshouses we grew Cyclamen, about sixty thousand each year, and Gladioli over about 10 acres. We exported the bulbs to Scotland and England; our biggest shipment was 69 tons of Gladioli bulbs. We had very good drying sheds and racks for our bulbs, and I believe we were the largest exporters of this kind in the Commonwealth.

Then the pelargoniums became the rage again, and we began to extend our stocks of them in the early 1950's. Meanwhile, Mr. Both retired from the business in Adelaide and devoted his full time to the nursery at home. Besides the flowers mentioned, he also worked with Coleus; he had a passion for anything frilled. He produced a new strain of his own, some very lovely ones. He also grew Petunias, hence the name of the nursery, "Tunia" being short of Petunia.

Mr. Both was also breeding another very interesting race of hybrids which he named zonquils. They were the outcome of a cross between two members of pelargonium - zonals, and P. quinquelobatum. The flowers, in pastel colours, were produced on extremely long stems, and there seemed to be a distinct possibility for their use in the cut flower trade. There were four or five shades in these, but some have died out.

There was no doubt that Mr. Both's most outstanding achievement in hybridisation was the origination of what is now known as the staph race of hybrids. (These are now called five-fingered zonal pelargoniums). He developed these by crossing the Australian mystery plant 'Chinese Cactus' (also known as 'Fiery Chief) with a wide variety of zonals. The resulting plant retained the typical 'Chinese Cactus' fan-shaped leaf and a highly distinctive flower form, but double flowers were formed as well as singles, and the colour range extended from the original pink and white mixture to include all the colours so far possible in pelargoniums.

Mr. Both made more than 600 crossings, but only three were named before his death -'Red Demon', 'Silver Stars' and 'Stardom'. Afterwards, Mr. Blakeman of Alice Springs named some more for me."

On 17th June, 1962, Mr. Both passed away, his work unfinished, the world the poorer for the loss of his genius, his family and friends the loss of the kindly man.

We have listed Mr. Both's cultivars on the following pages, the information being collated by the Research Committee.

The following names are originations of the late Mr. Both. He had named three only before his death, others were named by Mr. John Blakeman, his friend, and Mrs. A. Both named some more. The remainder were named by Mr. R. Swinbourne.
