NEW BEDFORD HORTICULTURAL 

 SOCIETY. 



The rose show held by the New Bed- 

 ford Horticultural Society on Wednes- 

 day, June 24, was a great success and 

 was largely attended. The committee 

 had rather gloomy forebodings of a 

 failure when they found Miss Sarah B. 

 Fay and M. H. Walsh of Woods Hole, 

 could not send their usual fine display 

 owing to a very backward season, and 

 local growers told sorrowful tales of 

 roses past and gone or not yet in flow- 

 er, but when everything was in readi- 

 ness for judging it became evident 

 that many littles make a mickle, and 

 the hall was filled to overfiowing. 

 Without the magnificent specimens 

 from the above mentioned growers the 

 wonderful possibilities of the rose 

 were not as strongly emphasized as in 

 previous years, but the splendid dis- 

 play of' varied types by amateur grow- 

 ers showed plainly the adaptability of 

 the rose for cottage gardens, and like- 

 wise gave flower lovers a fine chance 

 for selection of varieties suitable for 

 home culture. Note books and pencils 

 were being worked overtime and clear- 

 ly emphasized the fact that the Hybrid 

 Tea has aroused great enthusiasm in 

 this section. While there were some 

 excellent exhibits of Hybrid Perpetu- 

 als, the general trend was toward the 

 teas and their hybrids. Some of the 

 newer climbing roses were shown in 

 all their daintiness, conspicuous 

 among them being Silver Moon, Dr. 

 Van Fleet. Christine Wright and W. C. 

 Egan. Among the teas and hybrid 

 teas favoritism seemed to place Koni- 

 gin Corola in first place with La Tosca, 

 Lady Hillingdon. Mrs. A. R. Waddell, 

 Farbenkiinigin, White Maman Cochet, 



J. J. L. Mock, Mabel Drew, Melanie 

 Soupert and The Daily Mail as close 

 rivals. 



Among the professional growers, H. 

 E. Converse (D. F. Roy, Supt.) cap- 

 tured all the premiums, consisting of 

 three cups, while Galen Stone (A. R. 

 Griflin. Supt.) received a special award 

 of merit for general exhibit of speci- 

 men blooms. James Garthly. gardener 

 for the Rogers' estate, had his usual 

 fine display tastefully arranged, and 

 Wm. Keith, gardener for T. M. Stet- 

 son, filled a large table with an excel- 

 lent group of plants and roses. 



Among the amateurs. Miss Alice 

 Stackpole of Mattapoisett. was the 

 principal exhibitor and prize winner, 

 having no iess than sixteen firsts to 

 her credit. Other winners in this class 

 were H. B. Parlow, J. C. Forbes, F. G. 

 Tripp, Hugh Beveridge. J. A. Nolet 

 and W. F. Turner.

What an example of landscape gar- 

 d'.ning Dame Nature has set here! 

 Where is the landscape architect who 

 o;in produce anything to equal it?

A NATURAL ROCK GARDEN. 



Our cover shows a rock garden en- 

 tirely 'of Nature's handiwork on the 

 ectate of Mrs. B. B. Tuttle in Middle- 

 bury, Conn. When the picture was taken 

 a few weeks ago, the mountain laurel or 

 Kalmia latifolia was making a grand 

 display. The scene is an old cart path 

 winding through woods, flanked on both 

 sides and as far as the eye can reach, 

 with these fiowers — a sight, once seen, 

 never to be forgotten. At every turn 

 a new and more beautiful picture is 

 seen as the path winds its way among 

 rocks and boulders of gigantic size, 

 here and there dotted with tufts of 

 ferns and mosses and out of the crev- 

 ices and almost inaccessible places 

 these lovely laurels blossom forth. 



.\t the Sweet Pea Exhibition of the 

 I enna Horticultural Society last week, 

 tlie winning exhibit in the class for 

 t\ielve vases of fifty sprays each, com- 

 l.rised the following named varieties: 

 E'freda Pearson, Blue Jacket, Florence 

 Nightingale, King White, Geo. Her- 

 bert. Blanche Ferry Spencer, Orchid, 

 Irish Belle, Mrs. Hugh Dickson, Mar- 

 f':;ret Madison, Thos. Stevenson and 

 \\ hite Spencer.
