Anna Botsford Comstock (1854-1930), in her Handbook of Nature Study, wrote, "...when completely opened, the four petals flare wide, making a flower with a golden rim and an orange center, although among our cultivated varieties they range from orange to an anaemic white. To one who loves them in their glorious native hues, the white varieties seem almost repulsive. Compare one of these small, pale flowers with the great, rich, orange ones that glorify some favored regions in the Mojave Desert, and we feel the enervating and decadent influence of civilization." Whew!
