Bose buyers are steadily realizing that there is only one White rose on the market in summer that gives satisfaction, and 

 that particular variety is Budlong's Double White Killarney, which has several strong features, viz.: full flower, 

 heavy foliage, better keeper and shipper and. last but not least, it is whiter than the common strain of White Eillarney.
