THE WICHURAIANA HYBRIDS 67 



very decorative. This is a splendid Rose for 

 cutting, and as its leaves are quite evergreen it is 

 excellent for screens or trellises. An early flower- 

 ing Rose, beginning to bloom at the beginning 

 of June. 



Joseph Billard. This is another large single Rose, with 

 4-inch flowers, crimson with a deep yellow centre 

 which fades to white. The stamens are distinctive 

 and beautiful. The blooms appear from June 2Oth, 

 and also in Autumn. 



Joseph Lamy. This Rose bears its semi-double flowers 

 singly on long stems ; they are white edged with 

 pink, and the effect is very lovely. A good Rose 

 for cutting. 



Lady Gay. This pink Rose is not unlike Dorothy 

 Perkins, but the flowers are deeper in colour and 

 rather larger. They are borne somewhat more 

 loosely than those of Dorothy. The foliage of this 

 variety is very distinguished, being dark and clean, 

 and practically evergreen. 



Lady Godiva. This is like Dorothy Perkins in all but 

 colour, which is more nearly a flesh tint. It and 

 the preceding Rose flower from mid- July. 



La Perk. This is a perfectly shaped creamy white 

 double Rose, with a truss of from one to five 

 flowers. It is a free bloomer, beginning to flower 

 the first week in June. 



Leontine Gervais. This bears a truss of from one to five 

 rich salmon and apricot double flowers, with buds 

 of copper red. The old flowers fade to yellowish 

 pink. This is one of the best of the coppers, but 

 as a screen it is not recommended as its leaves fall 

 early. It flowers from mid or late June. 



Mme. Alice Gamier. This is a small very double rosette- 

 like Rose, yellowish, shaded to pink at the edges, 

 It flowers in mid-June.
