California Rose Co., Los Angeles. 47 LIBERTY. The Grand New Hybrid Tea Rose. Registered with The Society of American Originated by the famous rosarians, Mess. A. Dickson & Sons; introduced and named by Mr. E. G. Asmus, of Xew Jersey. Awarded certificate by Horticultural Section of the Amer- ican Institute, Xew York, March 8th. We quote from the description as it appeared in Ameri- can Gardening: "Never has nature yielded to the painstaking hybridist and plant raiser a more beautiful or more satisfying color than that seen in the new Hybrid Tea Rose Liberty, which today marks the limit of glorious deep, yet bright coloration in a family by no means deficient in warm rich hues of crimson red. Even as the ruby flashings of generous wine have been an inspiration to verse writers for ages, so are we now fired to enthusiasm when contemplating the rich liquid ruby hue of Liberty. There can be little doubt but that Liberty is destined to rapidly become the one dark flowered rose for both commercial and private ; This grand rose has been in bloom with us for two years, blooming continually. For out-of-door cultivation we consider it the peer of any rich red, constant blooming rose grown. We have nice field-grown stock of this variety this year, and it is the only place in America where such plants can be had.
