ROSES OF AMERICAN ORIGIN 173 



Sunset, Tea, 1883, a sport from Perle des 

 Jardins and an acquisition to our list of 

 forcing roses, being of a rich salmon shade 

 of orange. 



Dinsmore, H. R., 1886, very similar to 

 Mme. Chas. Wood, but a better constitution; 

 a free, continuous, blooming variety for sum- 

 mer bedding. 



Ruby Gold, Tea, 1892, raised by Mr. T. 

 O'Connor, of Providence, R. I.; it has an 

 interesting history. Mr. O'Connor grafted 

 Catherine Mermet on Marechal Niel, and 

 it was from this graft that the sport was 

 obtained. 



Jubilee, H. P., 1897, raised by Mr. M. H. 

 Walsh, of Woods Hole, Mass., from seed 

 of Victor Hugo x Prince Camille de Rohan. 

 Its brilliant flaming crimson? with maroon 

 shading and large size ranks it among the 

 most distinct of its class. 



Mr. John Cook, of Baltimore, Md., has 

 given us some really good roses in 



Souvenir de Wootton, 1 888, seedling of 

 Louis Van Houtte X Bon Silene, a very 

 valuable rose, deliciously sweet, of large size, 

 bright cherry crimson, very free flowering. 



Marion Dingee, 1892, seedling of Duchess
