terminated with a large cluster of flowers.

WOOD (Fortune, 1845.) (Н. N.)—Yellow flaked with car-

MISCELLANEOUS ROSES 
Under this heading are listed all the Roses that are not embraced in the different families or types that we name in the 
preceding pages. 
AMOENA, The Pink Flowering Cherokee Rose (Hockbridge, 
1909.) (L.)— This wonderful beautiful new Laevigata or 
Cherokee Rose was raised in California and it will sweep 
the state like wild fire when it is once known. The flow- 
ers are the same as the white flowering Cherokee, except 
that the color is a glowing pink with golden-yellow center. Re- 
sembles huge appie blossoms. Stock scarce. We have a fine lot. 
ARTHUR R. GOODWIN (Pernet Ducher, 1909.) (A. B.) — 
This is a genuine “Регпеііапа,” and is perfectly hardy ev- 
erywhere. The color is coppery orange-red passing to sal- 
mon-pink as the flowers expand. A superb combination of 
color; flowers medium to large and full. Should prove a 
most valuable Rose. 
CISSIE EASLEA (Pernet Ducher, 1913.) (A. B.) —Clear 
saffron-yellow, with carmine center, passing to Naples-yel- 
low when expanding. Flowers large, full and globular. 
Growth vigorous and erect. Excellent for garden culture. 
DOUBLE LAEVIGATA, or the Double Flowering Cherokee 
(California, 1900.)  (L.)—4A beautiful hardy Rose, bearing 
double white flowers; very fine. Foliage is very distinct. 
LAEVIGATA, the Single White Cherokee Rose (Lindley, 1820.) 
(L.)—This is the famous Cherokee Rose so well known in 
California. Large, pure white flowers with center filled with 
golden-yellow anthers. 
LOUISE CATHERINE BRESLAU (Pernet Ducher, 1912.) (A. 
B.)—Coral-red shaded with chrome-yellow; flowers very 
large, full and globular, possessing large petals of great 
depth. Superb color of shrimp-pink, shaded with reddish cop- 
ery-orange and chrome-yellow on the reverse of the petals. 
MADAME DWARD HERRIOTT (Pernet Ducher.) (A. B.) — 
“The Daily Mail Rose." Winner of the gold cup, which 
was offered by the London Daily Mail, for the best new 
Rose, exhibited at the International Horticultural Exhibition, 
held in London, England, May, 1912 (this was the greatest 
horticultural exhibition ever held), and to be known as the 
Daily Mail Rose. In competition with the world’s greatest 
rosarians this much coveted prize was awarded to M. Pernet 
Ducher for this wonderful novelty. It was again exhibited 
in London on May 1, 1913, at the exhibition of the National 
Rose Society of England, where it was awarded the society’s 
gold medal. This variety is said to be the progeny of an 
unnamed seedling of Caroline Testout, and an unnamed va- 
riety of the Pernetiana class. The plant is a strong, vigor- 
ous grower, of spreading, branching habit, with numerous 
long thorns and bronzy green foliage. М. Pernet Ducher 
describes its color as follows: “Buds coral-red, shaded with 
yellow at the base, the open flowers of medium size, semi- 
double, are of a superb coral-red, shaded with yellow and 
bright rosy-scarlet passing to shrimp-red." One of our 
American correspondents, a friend of the introducer, who 
had the pleasure of testing it in this country, says: “А 
wonderful Rose. The bud is long, slender and pointed, the 
color is like sunshine on a copper-red metal.”

tinuous bloomer.

much about.

SIR THOMAS LIPTON (Conard, 1905.) (R.)—The best pure 
white Rugosa Rose. Strong and vigorous; grows four feet 
high. Flowers perfectly double, pure snow-white. Fragrant, 
borne on long stems continuously throughout the season. 
Absolutely hardy everywhere. Splendid for hedging, ceme- 
tery and park work.

deeply tinted with carmine, while the center ones are some- 
times striped with yellow. Flower large, full, elongated; 
very floriferous.

vigorous grower, in California growing to the top of tall 
trees and completely enveloping the entire tree; small 
double pure white flowers in clusters, with the true Violet 
fragrance. Indeed, if one were blindfolded, they could not 
detect the odor from Violets. Very desirable. 
WICHURAIANA, or MEMORIAL ROSE (Dr. Wichura, of Ja- 
pan, 1886.) (W.)—It is difficult to conceive anything more 
appropriate, beautiful and enduring for covering graves and 
plots in cemeteries than the Hardy Memorial Rose. It 
creeps along the ground as closely as an Ivy. The flowers 
are produced in lavish profusion in July. They are sin- 
gle, pure white, with a golden-yellow disc, five to six inches 
in circumference. It is also immensely valuable as a 
Climbing Rose, for covering arches, fences, etc. 
WILLOWMERE (Pernet Ducher, 1913.) (A. B.)—Color rich 
shrimp-pink, shaded yellow in the center, and toning to car- 
mine-pink towards the edges of the petals. Vigorous growth 
and erect branching habit. Long carmined, coral bud car- 
ried on long, stout flower stalks. Very large flower, full, 
and of elongated cup shape. A superb Rose.

sulphur-yellow. Has the same delicious Violet fragrance.
