BADENWEILER, THE BOTANICAL GARDEN
After a visit all too brief we were on our way back to Laufen, stopping
at the Botanical Garden in Badenweiler to visit its Director, Dr. Bruno
Muller. We found Dr. Muller supervising some work near the pavilion, a
new structure of exciting modern styling. Dr. Muller is under pressure to
display the flashy type of bedding plants, but so far has managed to
maintain plantings of the important perennials, of which a fairly large bed
of spurias show excellent bloom. Looking particularly handsome were:
CONTRADICTION, in chocolate brown standards and golden falls lined and
bordered in brown, one that does well for me in Massachusetts; INTENSITY,
a very bright orange-yellow self; CONNOISSEUR, tan yellow with copperbrown
edging on the falls, and touches of violet; MARILYN HOLLOWAY,
delightfully ruffled combination of lavender and lemon; MOON BY DAY, blue
bitone with very pale blue falls, bordered deeper; and INDIAN PUEBLO, deep
tan yellow blended with brown, and excellent form..
