It is of very free development, and bears large quantities of flowers of silvery pink. Viscountess Folkestone is, like La France, a Hybrid Tea. It is an excellent bloomer. Its color is a soft pink, shaded with cream, with reflexed petals. It has a rich, June-Rose fragrance. Maman Cochet is, all things considered, one of the best of its class. It blooms in wonderful profusion.
Rolfe now and then received a respectful greeting. He had wished to speak Welsh, but soon abandoned the endeavour. He liked to hear it, especially on the lips of children at their play. An old, old language, symbol of the vitality of a race; sounding on those young lips as in the time when his own English, composite, hybrid, had not yet begun to shape itself.
"Instance, instance," we cry impatiently. And so the story remains half a shadow. The poem is dramatic, yet, like so much of Browning's work, it is not pure drama coming from profound sympathy with a spirit other than the writer's own; it is only hybrid drama, in which the dramatis persona thinks and moves and acts under the necessity of expounding certain ideas of the poet.
The range of variability, from which the choices were made, is obscure and only the fact of the selection is prominent. What part is due to the combination of the parental features and what to the individual fluctuation of the hybrid itself cannot be ascertained. So it is in numerous other instances.
He glared at me wildly, as if anticipating contradiction, but Gatton and I remaining silent: "There is no physical association," he continued, "between the hybrid and that creature whose qualities and peculiarities he seemingly inherits. I have proved by a long series of elaborate experiments that a true hybrid of this description is a physiological impossibility.
The spikes would show exactly the same mixture as in the above case, but now this may be considered as conclusive proof that half the pollen-grains represent the quality of one parent and the other half the quality of the other. Another corollary of Mendel's law is the following. In each generation two groups return to purity, and one-half remains hybrid.
It was the tool a weird hybrid tool, part gun, part rake, part catapult, part curry-comb, fit apparently for almost any purpose, from the business of blunderbuss to the office of an apple-picker. Its handle, which any child could hold, was somewhat shorter and thicker than a hoe-handle, and had a slotted tin barrel, a sort of intestine, on its ventral side along its entire length.
Lady Coverly never knew her unnatural child, and Sir Burnham as well as the old family nurse who had accompanied them out from England never doubted that it had died in the hour of birth. I set to work with enthusiasm upon my last and greatest experiment. To a half-caste woman upon whom I knew I could rely for she was deeply indebted to me I entrusted the fostering of the infant hybrid.
The long tail feathers of Pheasants have been much in demand by the millinery trade during the past ten years. Although several species contribute to the supply, the majority are from the Chinese Pheasant, or a similar hybrid descendent known as the English Ring-necked Pheasant.
He had hitherto taken scant notice of all these Parties that had sprung up for the confusion of his people these hybrid, kaleidoscopic combinations of Russian and Jewish politics but as he fled from the philosophers through the now darkening streets, his every nerve quivering, it seemed to him as if the alphabet had only to be thrown about like dice to give always the name of some Party or other.
