HOW TO GROW ROSES 



Mme. Abel Chatenay 



My Maryland 



For "Forcing" under Glass or for Indoor 

 Winter Bloom 

 These varieties are grown by professional florists in glass- 

 houses where they can with nicety regulate the supply of 

 heat and moisture, to produce the long-stemmed "beauties" 

 seen in florists' windows. While a greenhouse or conserva- 

 tory is a wonderful help, indeed essential for best results, 

 some people have these same roses during the winter, bloom- 

 ing beautifully in their homes by growing them where they 

 have plenty of sunlight and air. A thing to remember is 

 that coal gas is very injurious to plant life, therefore must 

 be carefully guarded against. They are: American Beauty, 

 Hadley, Irish Fireflame, Jonkheer J. L. Mock, Killarney, 

 Killarney Brilliant, Kaiserin Augusta Victoria, Lady Alice 

 Stanley, Lady Hillingdon, Madison, Mme. Abel Chatenay, 

 Mrs. Aaron Ward, Mrs. B. R. Cant, Mrs. Charles Russell, 

 Mrs. George Shawyer, My Maryland, Ophelia, Radiance, 

 Rhea Reid, Richmond, Sunburst, Wellesley, White Killarney.
