P., 1837, The Magazine of Botany and Gardening, 3:153: Said to be raised from the seed of the single white (Alba Simplex) by Mr Smith of Islington. It is of the purest white colour; the petals round and bold, and perfectly cupped, retaining their consistency until the flower drops. It is, however, quite persistent and remains for several weeks in perfection.

Orthographic error: ‘Concheflora Alba’. Originated in England.
