THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURISJ 



shell-plnk flowers as they open, remind one of 

 the miniature Provence de Meaux, only that 

 they are brighter and rather larger. They are 

 produced in splendid clusters of twenty to fifty 

 flowers. One can imagine, therefore, the effect 

 obtained from a well developed plant. Grpwths 

 are made in one season of 10 to 12 feet long. 

 Although this new rose was raised from Rosa 

 Wichuriana, crossed with the old H. P. rose, 

 Mme. Gabriel Luizet, it loses the procumbent 

 form of the seed parent, and, instead, partakes 

 of the upright character of the Crimson Ramb- 

 ler, so that is is a first-rate companion of the 

 latter."

CALLAS 



AVERY successful arrangement of 

 potted calla lilies is shown in the ac- 

 companying cut. A florist writing to the 

 Country Gentleman says of it : 



It was a large pot containing three strong 

 callas, and in the center a plant of zebra 

 grass (Eulalia japonica zebrina, var.) The 

 soil was rich, and during the winter a top 

 dressing of fine manure was given it, with 

 plenty of water. The growth was magni- 

 ficent, both of the callas and the grass, 

 which gave the whole object a particularly 

 pleasing efifect that is but too poorly ex- 

 pressed by a picture. 



Many flowers were borne, and it con- 

 tinued in beauty till late in the spring, when 

 it was planted in the garden and given a 



rest. 



A Neglected Fruit 



The dewberry in its glory is a most lus- 

 cious fruit, but it is known only in our large 

 markets. Many of our small dealers in the 

 local markets have never even heard its name. 

 Its cultivation has been left to the specialist 

 almost entirely, because farmers have been 

 ignorant of its value, and the method of 

 growing. The farmer has been fighting the 

 wild dewberry all his life, and is loath to 

 believe that any good can come out of Naz- 

 areth. If he only understood how easy it is, 

 he could add a money-making crop to his 

 list with small expense and trouble. Given 

 the right treatment at the proper time, it 

 turns out a very profitable investment. —
