THE GLORIOUS FOR 
The popularizing of this new race of Roses in America can be credited largely 
to the eminent Dr. J. H. Nicolas and his associates in the Department of 
Plant Research of Jackson & Perkins Co., located in the rigorous climate of 
northern New York State where hardiness is essential.

else can. An appreciation of its usefulness 
for mass planting is given by the garden
