is a chance, even in late September^ of 

 seeing what some of the varieties will 

 do under the queer growing conditions 

 of this season. England's Glory, im- 

 perfect here for seven years, now fully 

 deserves its name and more. Mrs. 

 Wemyss Quinn; the recent Bagatelle 

 winner, is lovely with its deep, rich, 

 golden coloring and exquisite perfume. 

 Mrs. MacKellar, outdoor rival of 

 Ophelia, is in fine form. Lady Ursula 

 is earning its sobriquet of timber pro- 

 ducer for the amateur. Mrs. Edward 

 Powel shows fire in its brilliant rich- 

 ness. 



The last, but by far the greatest of 

 all in its promise, is seedling No. 102, 

 none less than the famous Los Angeles 

 rose, for which J. D. Eisele has secured 

 for Henry A. Dreer, Inc., the eastern 

 agency, from Howard & Smith, the in- 

 troducers. Los Angeles bears full, per- 

 fect flowers of a shrimp pink color, 

 which is enriched by orange at the base 

 of the petals. It is considered the most 

 beautiful rose since the introduction of 

 the Lyon rose, which it surpasses in 

 many qualities. Los Angeles will make 

 its bow in December. 



Various Notes. 



Reports from the growers of the Leo 

 Nieasen Co. show that they are ready 

 for the season's work, with their plants 

 in the "pink" of condition. 



Recent visitors included Charles Yea- 

 ger and Mrs. Yeager, of Allentown, Pa.; 

 Paul Blackman, Reading, Pa.; Samuel 

 Rogers, of the Rogers Floral Co., of 

 Charleston, S. C; and the junior mem- 

 ber of the firm of Erdman & Ulrich, 

 Baltimore, Md.

John Westcott entertained that genial 

 personage September 23 and 24, at 

 Waretown, N. J. The tables were re- 

 versed. There was a goodly number of 

 hosts and only one guest, and they had 

 a good time indeed. 



The statement that Samuel S. Pen- 

 nock has returned from Weekapaug, R. 

 I., is incorrect — he hasn't, but he soon 

 will. 



The statement that Robert F. Welch 

 told the Germantown Horticultural So- 

 ciety how to hunt wild flowers was 

 dead wrong; he didn't, his throat gave 

 out. James Arnold took his place.
