IQT4. 
Prejudice against a rose which has only one 
period of blossoming has become a little mod1- 
fied. and the tendency to judge a flower by its 
beauty, fragrance and good constitution is gain- 
ing ground. 
‘We do not discard our beautiful spring 
shrubs because they do not blossom again in the 
autumn, and surely roses which are desirable in 
every respect should be allowed the same prace 
The acquiring of our collection has been an 
arduous task and is far from complete. 
We welcome the opportunity of obtaining 
varieties of note, that are not included in this 
collection. 
We wish to extend our sincere thanks to 
such connoisseurs of old varieties as Howard 
Tenner, Roy Shepherd, Steve Hamblin and many 
others. who have so generously contributed their 
time and knowledge in the compilation of this list.
