The Weekly Florists' Review* 



February 27, 1908.

NEW ROSE 



■"» 



MRS. JARDINE 



Every Florist who Plants a Rose for Winter Forcing wants at least Six Qualities 



A FREE, STRONG GROWTH, WITH GOOD FOLIAGE. A VARIETY THAT CAN BE EASILY GROWN. LARGE 

 FLOWERS ON LONG STEMS. DELICIOUS FRAGRANCE. DISTINCT, PLEASING COLOR THAT WILL SELL 

 AT SIGHT. A ROSE THAT WILL HOLD ITS COLOR IN THE DULL DAYS OF DECEMBER AND JANUARY. 



MRS. JARDINE has all these characteristics, and, in addition, is of so perfect a form that it can be used either 

 in the bud or half expanded flower. The color is a bright rosy pink, shading in the outer petals to salmon pink, and, 

 even in January, when Bridesmaids and Killarney lose their color, Mn. Jardine is as brignt as in October or March. 



We extend a cordial invitation to everyone interested in this New Rose to visit our Nurseries and see it growing. 



MRS. JARDINE has been awarded Two Silver Medals, numerous Certificates, and successfully stood the best 

 test which any novelty can possibly have in passing unanimously, in December, the Award Committee of the New 

 York Florists Club after an exhaustive examination of the growing plants, with a score of 92 points. 



Strong: Plants on own roots, from 2;^-inch pots« $6.00 per doz.; $30.00 per 100; $70.00 per 260; 

 $260.00 per 1000; 6000 for $1126.00; 10,000 for $2126.00. 



Grafted on Dickson's Manetti' Stocks, $6.00 per 100 additional.

carnation plants from the field. Twenty- 

 eight tests were made on different lots 

 of plants, using the gas at the rate of 

 an ounce and three-fourths to seven 

 ounces per 1,000 cubic feet, and at inter- 

 vals of from five minutes to one hour, 

 with one set exposed for twelve hours. 

 The important consideration is that none 

 of the tests was made at a higher tem- 

 perature than the night temperature 

 usually carried on carnation houses. The 

 result was that the plants were not in- 

 jured. 



Perhaps some persons may think that 

 we have not reported many results, but I 

 «-ish to say that the responsibility resting 

 on all connected with this work, whether 

 on the committee or the station staff, and 

 further, the amount of capital involved, 

 are too great for any of us to report re- 

 sults which we are not absolutely certain 

 are correct. 



Ix)UisiAXA, Mo. — The death of C. H. 

 Foreman, and the injury of his brother, 

 Claude Foreman, by the chimney falling 

 on them during the fire which destroyed 

 the greenhouses, was reported in the Re- 

 view of February 13. It now appears 

 that Claude Foreman, who was already 

 blind in one eye, has lost the sight of the 

 other through the accident.
