THURSDAY,  OCTOBER  31,  1901. 
Rose  Analysis,  1895-1901. 
IAS 
LTHOUGH  this  analysi 
now  appeared  in  the  Journal 
of  Horticulture  year  by  year 
for  the  last  sixteen  years,  it 
may  be  advisable  for  the  sake 
of  those  who  come  across  it  now 
for  the  first  time  to  briefly  explain 
once  more  the  method  adopted  in  its 
compilation,  and  the  materials  upon 
which  it  is  based.  Since  1886  the  name 
of  every  Rose  in  all  the  prize  stands  at  the 
National  Rose  Society’s  metropolitan  exhibi¬ 
tion  hare  been  taken  down,  and  the  results 
afterwards  tabulated.  The  average  number 
of  blooms  thus  dealt  with  annually  has  been 
about  1800.  In  the  complete  table  for  the 
whole  sixteen  years  can  be  found  the  number 
of  times  any  variety  was  staged  at  all  or  any 
of  those  sixteen  exhibitions.  This  table  is 
often  of  great  service  for  reference,  but  in 
the  present  analysis  the  positions  of  the 
different  varieties  which  will  allow  of  this 
being  done — and  they  form  more  than  80  per 
cent,  of  the  varieties  appearing  in  the  table  of 
Hybrid  Perpetuals  and  Hybrid  Teas,  and  that 
of  Teas  and  Noisettes — are  made  dependent 
upon  their  average  records  for  the  last  eight 
years  only,  it  having  been  found  in  practice 
that  a  period  of  seven  or  eight  years  gives 
the  most  trustworthy  and  comparable  results. 
From  1886-87  the  National  Rose  Society’s 
metropolitan  exhibition  was  held  at  South 
Kensington,  from  1888  1900  at  the  Crystal 
Palace,  and  for  the  first  time  this  year  in  the 
Temple  Gardens. 
The  poor  form  displayed  this  year  by  Mrs. 
John  Laing,  usually  one  of  the  most  depend¬ 
able  of  all  Roses,  has  been  a  matter  for 
remark  and  surprise  amongst  rosariane 
generally.  The  number  of  flowers  of  this 
tine  variety  staged  at  the  Temple  Rose  Show 
was  not  much  below  the  average,  but  the 
1  READERS  are  requested  to  send  Notices  of  Gardening 
t  Appointments  or  Notes  of  Horticultural  Interest, 
Intimations  of  Meetings,  Queries,  and  all  Artioies  for 
Publication,  officially  to  “THB  EDITOR  "  at
