Orleans. One of the most important Polyantha 
Roses, as nearly all the orange varieties are 
descended from it. The color of Orleans is 
light red with a tinge of white at the center of 
the bloom; flowers are small, a little more than 
semi-double, and are produced all summer. 
POLYANTHA ROSES, continued 
Lafayette. A variety characterized by splendid 
growth and free-blooming qualities. The 
flowers are large, semi-double, light crimson, 
and borne in clusters of 40 or more blooms. 
The color holds well during hot weather. 
This variety differs from most others of the 
class, and seems to be a member of a new 
group which includes Else Poulsen and 
Kirsten Poulsen. 
Miss Edith Cavell. Small, semi-double 
flowers of brilliant scarlet-red with 
darker shadings. The blooms are car¬ 
ried in large clusters on well-branched 
plants, and frequently cover the plant 
with a gorgeous display of color.

RUTH SHAMBURGER. A new variety origi¬ 
nating in our own fields. It is a member of 
the famous Poulsen family and bears many of 
the characteristics of that group. It may be 
termed a tall-growing baby rambler. In color 
the blooms are very light pink, semi-double, 
and borne in large clusters. The individual 
flowers have five petals, which have consider¬ 
able substance and remain in good condition 
for some days after cutting. The plant is a 
vigorous grower with clean glossy foliage,
