jOR several years we have made a study of the Pedigree Seedling Roses of Messrs. Alexander Did 



when from 3000 to 5000 Seedlings were in bloom^ and our earnest endeavor has been to select v 



flower as freely during the Winter as Killarney. We have tested several beautiful Roses that th 



produce enough flowers during the Winter months to be profitable to the Grower. In Melody we have 



introduced; it is a Yellow Pedigree Seedling of Messrs. Alexander Dickson & Sonst Newtownards, Irela 



for Winter forcings their former introductions being Killarney, Liberty and Mrs. Jardine. 



Melody has a strong, willowy growth, unlike any other forcing variety, with rich glossy foliaj 



yellow, shading toward the center to deep apricot yellow, and very double. It will be particularly valual 



quantities of flowers in Winter, when other varieties are apt to be shy. With us in Sharon Hill it is as 



and from one two-year-old plant, last December, we cut 26 flowers, and from the same plant on the next c 



We offer only Own Root Plants, as, like most yellow Roses, Melody does not take kindly to Mane

HIS Novelty originated in our own place. Some years ag( 



flowers from it. One of these plants sported back to pink 



flower had from 10 to 12 more petals than Killarney, som
