JOURNAL  OF  HORTICULTURE  AND  COTTAGE  GARDENER. 
October  25,  1900.  T 
cultivation  has  taken  the  lead  of  all  the  other  Hybrid  Perpetuala  and 
Hybrid  Teas.  Moreover,  its  position  has  never  once  through  all 
those  years  been  seriously  in  danger.  At  each  of  the  last  two  Crystal 
Palace  exhibitions  it  was  to  be  seen  in  no  fewer  than  fifty-five  different 
nrize  8tand.«,  and  in  fifty-six  stands  in  1897.  The  nearest  approach  to 
this  record  is  that  of  another  H.P. — Ulrich  Brunner — which  appeared 
this  year  in  fifty  prize  stands.  Other  standard  kinds  which  were 
exceptionally  well  shown  this  season  were  Suzanne  Marie  Rodocanachi 
HYBRID  PERPETUALS 
(never  before  quite  as  good),  Gustave  Piganeau,  Frangois  Michelon, 
White  Lady,  and  Marie  Finger.  On  the  other  hand,  Madame 
G.  Luizet,  Horace  Vernet,  Earl  of  Dufferin,  Charles  Lefebvre,  Prince 
Arthur,  and  Victor  Hugo  have  seldom,  if  ever,  been  as  sparsely 
represented.  It  will  thus  be  seen  that  the  past  Rose  season  was 
very  unfavourable  to  several  of  the  dark  crimson  H.P.’s.  It  was 
not,  however,  so  disastrous  as  last  year  to  the  crimson  varieties 
generally,
