EOSE QAEDENS AT WASHINQTON 



(Contlnaed from page 37.) ' 



It is needless for the committee to go 

 into details, as the largest part of the 

 work, laying out and planting the gar- 

 den, has been under the direct care of 

 C. L. Mulford, landscape gardener, De- 

 partment of Agriculture, a member of 

 this society, who has kindly drafted a 

 report of the work, with the number of 

 varieties of roses planted, giving a key 

 to the whole situation, all of which is 

 attached hereto, and I ask that it be 

 included as a part hereof. 



It has been my pleasure to work with 

 many committees of the S. A. F. in the 

 past, but never have I worked with more 

 willing, faithful committeemen than 

 those in the matter of rose gardens at 

 tb9 national capital. 



ition must here be made of Eob- 



^ f^yle, of West Grove, Pa., who, in 



i' enthusiasm for the welfare of the 

 project, made several trips to Washing- 

 ton and rendered wtnderful help to- 



ward getting the garden started* Spe- 

 cial thanks are due Prof. Corbett, Dr. 

 Van Vleet and Mr. Steubenrauch, of 

 the Department of Agri«ulture, all of 

 whom rendered valuable assistance. 



The committee asks that anyone hav- 

 ing roses npt yet listed in the garden 

 at Arlingtoii Farms, Va., contribute 

 such for the general good of the rosa- 

 rians throughout the country. From our 

 experience in the past we feel that the 

 wants of the rose garden need only be 

 made known and the stock will be 

 forthcoming at the proper time. 



The report of Mr. Mulford is as fol- 

 lows: 



"As a member of the committee on 

 rose gardens of the S. A. F. and also as 

 a member of the American Eose So- 

 ciety, I wish to tell you the rose garden 

 has been well started in the last spring. 

 Three hundred and thirty-six lots of 

 roses have been planted, including 309 

 varieties. For the most part they are 

 doing well and the garden l^i>ks quite 

 promising. Only one-half of the gar- 

 den was laid off this year. This was 

 made into twelve beds capable of ac- 

 commodating eventually seventy-two 

 varieties a bed. The initial plantings 

 were mostly only thirty-six varieties to

Plan of Rose Garden at National Gipital. 



a bed, but with twelve plants of a kind. 

 Turf walks are to be the background. 

 These are now being sown. The rose 

 garden is to be surrounded by a trellis 

 six feet high for the training of climb- 

 ing roses, provided at appropriate points 

 with eight-foot posts and crosspieces 

 over the adjoining walk for the more 

 vigorous climbers, and shorter posts for 

 the pillar roses. It is planned also to 

 have pergolas at the corners of the gar- 

 den and special decorative features at 

 the four entrances. At the most com- 

 manding point on its main walk a low 

 mound will be raised, from which to 

 view the garden. On this an appro- 

 priate, rose-covered shelter is planned, 

 from which can be seen the Capitol, 

 Washington monument and many other 

 notable buildings in Washington, as 

 well as the old LeQ mansion, at Arling- 

 ton, and the new naval radio station. 

 Everything possible will be done to 

 have a beautiful garden, as well as a 

 test garden. 



"Some of the growers from whom 

 roses were expected last spring did not 

 respond; others sent part and have sig- 

 nified their intention of sending the 

 rest this fall. It will take almost as 

 many roses as we have received to finish 

 planting the part of the garden begun 

 this year. When we started planting in 

 the spring we fully expected to require 

 some of the ijndeveloped half of the 

 garden- for piflAffing -thiB fall and next 

 spring. We are still counting on this 



additional room being neeessary. I am 

 sending a list of the roses we have an,i 

 a sketch of the garden by which the/ 

 may be located, and hope for a eontiiJ- 

 ued generous si}pport of the gardeii, 

 and an increasing interest in it."
