HIS great novelty originated at Orleans, France, and is a hybrid pro- 
duced by the crossing of Crimson Rambler and Glorie des Polyanthus. 
It preserves the prolific flowering quality of the latter, but with the 
color of the Crimson Rambler (clear brilliant ruby rose). | 
The foliage is of a fine polished dark green, and is never attacked 
by insects or fungus. It blooms in clusters and is very continuous. 
The time of blooming of the first umbel is not ended when the adjacent 
branches are ready to open with a considerable number of flowers, so 
that the period of blooming is not interrupted until after severe frosts. This 
rose will be very popular on account of its cluster formation, being similar to 
that of the Crimson Rambler, and more particularly because it is covered with 
flowers the whole summer. Especially valuable for culture in pots, blooming 
continuously in the house all winter. 
The Winter of 1903-1904 was the most severe in many years. The plants 
stood out during all that winter, without any protection whatever. Spring 
found these bushes alive to the tips of their branches. We have no hesitation 
in saying that the bushes of Dwarf Perpetual Crimson Rambler are per- 
fectly hardy and vigorous. The plants grow 24 to 30 inches high; it is not a 
climber.
