must rei^eat that I think the classification of the N.R.8. 

 on this point is a mistake.

Germaine Caillot, a fine sho^^■ Rose, worthy of a place 

 among the above, seems to me like a Hj^brid Tea, but 

 it is not classified as such yet by the N.R.S. 



For Middle Bows. — Where the H.P.s and Teas are 

 grown, as recommended, in long beds with three rows 

 in each, it is advisable, whether standards or dwarfs be 

 used, to know which will be tall enough in growth to 

 be suitable for the middle row. For such a purpose 

 I recommend of exhibition H.P.s the following thirty 

 of those in the N.R.S. catalogue : — 



Thirty H.P.s tall cnongli in grovth for a middle row.
