more vigorous growth. We unhesitatingly recom¬ 
mend them. 
These color pages represent in a small way the 
beauty of these roses. When you can find at one 
time twenty-five to thirty blooms and buds on a 
bush of Countess Vandal you have something. The 
fragrance, the texture, the deep blackish color of 
Nigrette are sources of great pleasure. Amelia 
Earhart is one of the finest yellow roses we have 
ever seen and so it goes. You can make no mistake 
in planting any or all of these sorts.
