A beautiful collection of perpetual roses, from Mrs. George Kendall, 

 was received too late for competition, but well worthy our highest com- 

 mendation. Mr. Kendall has been very successful in the culture of 

 roses, which he propagates mostly by budding — showing us that with 

 little care and effort, all may have the enjoyment of these beautiful flowers 

 at all times and seasons. 



Also a collection of dahlias, by Dr. Piatt, too late for competition, 

 deserve the same~notice from your committee.
