MADISON (Brandt Hentz, 1912)—This is the “money-maker” 
among the cut flower Roses, and is a greatly improved Bride, 
and when we say improvement, we raea l a genuine improve¬ 
ment. The best feature of Madison is that the foliage does 
not mildew. All know how badly the Bride mildews. Well, ! 
Madison is mildew-proof. Then after being planted and I 
well-established, Madison will cut as many flowers as Kil- 
larney, cutting steady each month in the year. Madison is 
a grand addition to our list of forcing Roses. Remember that 
“Madison” is the money-maker.
