HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES. 
T his class is not so popular in the South as the Everblooming kinds, yet 
some of them excel all other classes in size of flower and richness of color. 
They bloom profusely in their season, and some varieties produce also a few 
fine flowers later. The shades of crimson in this class are especially fine ; but so far 
no varieties of a yellow tint have been produced in Hybrid Perpetuals.
