Roses for Northwestern Long Island 



Admiral Aaron Ward, a really great rosarian, died July 5, 

 1918, but his capable helpmeet, Mrs. Aaron Ward, who was 

 always the trusted custodian of his roses during the Admiral's 

 long voyages, still carries on the great rose-garden at Roslyn. 

 Mrs. Ward has graciously revised the list furnished the author 

 by the Admiral shortly before his death, indicating her own 

 judgment on some of the newer sorts down to date. 



The following marked varieties named by the Admiral con- 

 tinue to distinguish themselves as superior sorts. Those thus 

 (*) marked are added now by Mrs. Ward as having been "im- 

 ported or ordered by the Admiral, but had not proved them- 

 selves before he died, though he thought highly of many of 

 them." The hst was based upon the following requirements: 

 Autumn blooms indispensable; weak growers barred; also plants 

 of huge gro\\1:h, hke La Tosca or Gruss an Teplitz, except for 

 use in mass effects; flowers to be full, no thinner than Pharisaer; 

 chmbers not included.
