MONAHAN, THE LATE MR. BRIAN

AUSTRALIA

VICTORIA.

The late Mr. B. Monahan hybridised some very lovely regals, which many of us have grown, probably without knowing whose originations they were. Mrs. Noreen Monahan has kindly supplied our Research Committee with the following list of her husband's cultivars, for which we thank her.

(In addition to the above cultivar names, Mrs. J. Ritchie has supplied the Research Committee with the following which she believes to also be Mr. Monahan's introductions)
