PILLAR AND PORCH 



is the choice and so tempting the material. Let me 

 endeavour to name at least a few of the most enchanting 

 that are at the same time not likely to disappoint in the 

 matter of growth and blossoming. On the sunniest wall 

 of all one may grow the exquisite Macartney Rose, with 

 large, white, single flowers of unsurpassed beauty ; the 

 yellow or white Banksia Roses ; those two beautiful Teas, 

 Duchesse D'Auerstadt (yellow), Mme. Hector Leuilliot 

 (orange yellow) ; Lamarque, a noisette, with lemon-white 

 blooms ; Reve d'Or, buff yellow, quite a vigorous sort ; 

 the lovely, clear yellow Henriette de Beauveau ; the 

 climbing K. A. Victoria, with creamy blooms of perfect 

 form ; and L'Ideale, with flowers of exquisite tinting, 

 shades of red and yellow. The wall facing west is suit- 

 able for Mme. Alfred Carrier e, very vigorous, but rather 

 shy flowering for the first few years ; Francois Crousse, 

 crimson ; William Allen Richardson, orange yellow ; 

 Bouquet d'Or, yellow and cream ; Papillon, rose, white 

 and copper shades ; Hugh Dickson, a big crimson rose ; 

 Mrs. Stewart Clark, an especially handsome variety, with 

 large rich rose-pink blooms ; and the old Thornless Rose, 

 Zepherin Drouhin. 



Facing east one may have Reine Marie Henriette, 

 Gloire de Dijon, Conrad F. Meyer, Dorothy Perkins, Rene 

 Andre, Felicite Perpetue, and all these may be grown 

 with greater or less success on a wall facing north. As 

 for climbing roses for the pillars and porch supports, 

 may we not choose from Tausendschon, pink ; Trier,
