RETAILERS AND GROWERS 



ever produced a new rose; at least I 

 have never read of his having done so. 

 Take Mr. Cook's first hybrid tea, and 

 do not let us forget that this was the 

 first one ever grown in this country. It 

 was a cross between that good old deep 

 pink, Bon Silene, and Louis Van Houtte. 

 Everyone knows what these two varie- 

 ties are, so it is little wonder that 

 Souvenir of Wootton has stood the test 

 of fi^e. 



Asjwe were talking about this old 

 one, Mr. Cook told me an interesting bit 

 of history, whicli some of the older 

 readers of The Review will recall, as to 

 how it came to get its name. It was 

 during an S. A. F. convention at Phila- 

 delphia that J. U. Childs, the great lover 

 and patron of flowers, invited the visi- 

 tors out to his country place, wh'ere they 

 were entertained royally. Someone 

 made the suggestion that the first new 

 thing produced should be named either 

 for the host of the occasion, or for his 

 fine estate. John Cook had this hybrid 

 tea, not yet named. So he christened it 

 Souvenir of Wootton, after the name of 

 Mr. Child's place, in honor of a pleas- 

 ant occasion. 



Won Many Prizes. 



There is nothing that gives this old 

 veteran keener pleasure than to sit 

 down with someone he likes and show 

 him the medals he has won, and, if you 

 would listen to him, it was always by 

 some mere chance that his exhibit was 

 judged better than the other fellow's. 

 One medal that he prizes highly is of 

 silver and was given him by the old 

 Maryland Horticultural Society for the 

 best collection of cut roses. Then there 

 is a loving cup from the same society 

 that was donated by Mrs. Robert Gar- 

 rett (now the wife of Dr. Henry Barton 

 Jacobs) for a best table decoration. 

 Two others that he is proud of were 

 awarded by the American Rose Society. 

 Another is a gold medal from the Pan- 

 American Exhibition for a best bed 

 of roses. This was won with Admiral 

 Schley, one of his family of which he 

 is proud. Another medal is from the 

 Jamestown Exhibition for a bed of 

 roses there. 



Mr. Cook's Pet Boses. 



As we sat on the porch and talked 

 about his collection of ro^es — and it 

 was much like a man talking about his 

 children — I asked him which one of 

 them he liked best. His reply was: 



'^'^'^re is no better rose grown than
