He was showing several of my favourites: a wild red number called "Doorman" – it was splaying in a splendidly feckless way out of its prim green RHS vase – and the cottage tulip "Menton", a tall robust flower of china rose, flushed with apricot.
This allows less robust wild flowers to flourish.
We can fly over the denuded stretches of the Amazon and feel the forest in our hands to be no more robust than a flower.
As a proof of concept, this InDel markers-based high-resolution genetic linkage map was utilized as a reference to identify and map the major genomic regions harboring robust QTLs governing flowering and maturity time, with an aim to accelerate genomics-assisted breeding in chickpea.
Despite all the hooey about attack and finish, fruits and flowers, round, robust length upon palate and the Robert Parker 100-point scale, we are swallowing the stuff to get high.
A. fimbriata has the physical features for large-scale greenhouse cultivation, including robust container growth, continuous flowering, and self-compatibility, permitting the production of large numbers of homozygous individuals required for gene functional analysis in a single life cycle.
This is a bit more robust than its white-flowered relative, growing four to six inches tall and bearing spikes of palest blue flowers with dark blue stripes.
Mutants of MOS3/SAR3 are smaller and less robust than WT plants and flower significantly earlier and with fewer leaves (Zhang and Li, 2005; Parry et al., 2006).
In particular, the tests show that the method was robust with a high percentage success in flower cutting regardless of the shape and size of the flower, the flower transporter velocity, the flower orientation (upward/downward), etc.
Hardiness will carry them through winter and their head start will encourage a much stronger root system, more robust plants and earlier yet longer flowering.
