VARIETIES FOR A ROSE GARDEN (DR. HUEY's 



lists) 



All Hybrid Perpetual Roses do not do well 

 in America, and some favourites in England 

 and Ireland are utterly worthless here. In 

 order to discover the best for this climate, 

 Dr. Robert Huey, of Philadelphia, Pa., has 

 been to considerable pains, and every Hybrid 

 Perpetual in Dickson's catalogue has been 

 thoroughly tested by garden cultivation. For 

 this valuable and complete trial the thanks 

 of all rosarians are due. The following va- 

 rieties have all given good satisfaction: 



White Roses, H.P. 



Merveille de Lyon 

 White Baroness 

 Frau Karl Druschki 

 Margaret Dickson 

 Mabel Morrison 

 Gloire Lyonnaise 



The last is an H.T. but is a vigorous grower, blooms only 

 in June, and should be planted with this class.
