EVER-BLOOMING ROSES AND VINES 245 



Nearly all of them are good, and some have partic- 

 ular qualities to recommend them which the grower 

 will not be slow to appreciate. Half the space at 

 least should be given over to the Hardy Perpet- 

 uals, for although their blooming season is com- 

 paratively short it is an eventful one, and to many 

 people these Roses are the crowning glory of June. 

 To have a country place and not to be able to revel 

 in Roses is very much like inheriting a fortune, 

 and dying of starvation. The list that follows 

 includes most of the perpetuals that are worth 

 growing : 



ALFRED COLSOMB; crimson. 



CAPTAIN HAYWARD; crimson. 



CAPTAIN CHRISTY; (Tea, but used as a perpetual 

 as it only blooms once); pink and white. 



CLIO; light rose pink. 



COMPTESSE CECILLE DE CHABRILLANT; deep pink. 



FRANCOIS LEVET; cherry-red. 



FRANCOIS MICHELON; carmine. 



GLOIRE LYONNAISE (like a Tea Rose in form and 

 perfume); yellowish white. 



HEINRICH SCHULTHEIS; pinkish-rose.
