THE DINGEE&CONARD CO. 



West Grove, Pennsylvania 



perpetual, crosses of the hybrid Bourbon 

 with hybrids of Kosa Indica, the China 

 rose. These came some ten years before 

 the advent of the hybrid perpetual. 



About this time another race of hy- 

 brids was introduced. This was ob- 

 tained by crossing the musk rose, Eosa 

 moschata, and the common blush China 

 rose. This produced the famous Noisette 

 rose, Eosa Noisettiana. The first of this 

 race was raised by Philippe Noisette, in 

 this country. He sent it to his brother 

 Louis, in Paris, about 1817, by whom it 

 was propagated. A number of varieties 

 were produced. It was later crossed with 

 the tea-scented rose, and such forms as 

 Marechal Niel produced, which are diffi- 

 cult to distinguish from the tea roses. 



Still the rose remained, with few 

 sporadic exceptions, a flower of the sum- 

 mer only. The instillation of the China 

 blood into the old-time roses did not 

 produce progeny with a flowering period 

 extending into the fall. 



The great desire now was to procure 

 roses which would flower in the autumn. 

 The China rose, of course, did this, but 

 it did not come up to the mark in other 

 respects. What was needed was the late 

 flowering of the China and the form and 

 scent of the other roses. 



The Hybrid Perpetuals. 



We now come to the day of the hybrid 

 perpetual. This was produced by cross- 

 ing the damask rose, Eosa Damascena, 

 with the hybrid China. Here we have a 

 mixture indeed — the elements of the 

 hybrid China (varieties of the French 

 and Provence roses crossed with the 

 China rose) and the damask rose. It 

 took, therefore, two infusions of the 

 China rose blood to overcome the more 

 sturdy qualities of the other parents and 

 produce a longer flowering period of the 

 rose. The first fruits in this line were 

 not entirely successful, and before a 

 really hybrid perpetual rose, such as we 

 know it now, could be produced, it was 

 necessary to cross these so-called per- 

 petuals with the Bourbon and still again 

 with the China roses. This was done by 

 M. Laffey. The influence of this new 

 race of roses was first felt about 1840, 

 and it reigned supreme from about 1860 

 to 1890.
