Chapter XVIII. page 221 (212 in " Contents '■) 

 deals with I'fan^ niiJ Plaiitino Sclifmrs submitted 

 by many of the leading conniiereial rose growers, 

 and while some of the plans are. we think, mi- 

 neeessarily elaborate, they are, on the whole, sug- 

 gestive and original . the lists of varietie.5 suggested 

 for the various beds are eminenlly useful, especi- 

 ally as the colours are usually grouped. Chapter 

 XIX contains a descriptive list of all the best 

 Roses at present in commerce. 



The author in the opening chapters comments 

 uuich on the Rose as the national flower of Eng- 

 land, and in Poetry tind The Buse contributes a 

 rousing poem from his own pen. He rightly gives 

 well deserved praise to British nurserymen for 

 their work in improving the Rose, and generously 

 refers to the great Rose specialists of Ireland. It 

 is strange, in these days especially, that by far the 

 greatest number of the best varieties of England's 

 National flower should have been raised in Ireland. 

 Let us hope that in the new era now dawning, the 

 Rose. Thistle and Shamrock, each living its own 

 life, and fulfilling its own destiny, will yet remain 

 bound together by common interests, sharing to- 

 gether the heritage of the earth.
