CHRISTOPHER STONE—Nearly the perfect rose. Rich unfading scarlet crimson, with 
pointed bud of great beauty, and big delicately waved petals on the gorgeous blooms. 
It grows and opens its buds perfectly in any climate, with absolutely stable color in 
sun or shade. It is an unbelievably heavy bloomer, is sweetly fragrant, and is low 
enough in growth to make the finest kind of bedding or border rose. A border of 
Christopher Stone is a sight not easily forgotten. It is noted among its other virtues 
for keeping the fresh brilliance of its velvet petals until they drop. I have put an 
enormous amount of vigor into this variety. Many who have this variety have never 
been greatly enthused simply because they did not have Hennessey plants. On my 
plants it is a wonderful and different variety. In a bed in front of my house I have
