NEW HYBRID-PERPETUAL ROSE Mme. ALBERT BARBIER (Barbier Bros. 1925) It has been some years since we offered anything new in Hybrid- Perpetual Roses, in fact, the hybridizers of the Rose world seem to have devoted their studies and energies entirely to other types, particularly to Hybrid-Tea and Pernetiana hybrids and when the originators sent us this variety for trial, we did not realize what a pleasant surprise was in store for us. We do not know the parentage of this Rose but in its general appearance, sturdiness of growth and freedom of flowering, it reminds us of that international favorite, Frau Karl Druschki, though of much dwarfer, compact habit. The medium size flowers are of beautiful imbricated form with perfect buds developing into well-formed, full, double flowers of a pearly white suffused with a soft flesh pink, intensified and illumi- nated by the golden yellow base of the petals. A very hardy Rose that we cheerfully recommend, feeling certain that it will become a popular variety. $ HYBRin-PERPETU.\L RoSE. FrAU KaRL DrUSCHKI HYBRID-PERPETUAL ROSES The varieties listed below are unquestionably the best that can be selected in the Hybrid-Perpetual class which, before the development of the Hybrid Teas, was the most popular type for garden planting, and even now they dare not be overlooked, but should be used extensively in conjunction with the other sorts, and especially so in localities where the hardiness of the Hybrid- Tea varieties has not been established. American Beauty. Soft carmine. Anna de Diesbach. Bright carmine-rose, of large size. Baroness Rothschild. Pale satiny-rose, very large. Captain Christy. Delicate flesh, tinted white, large full. Frau Karl Druschki. This is the ideal hardy white Rose. General Jacqueminot. Brilliant scarlet crimson. Geor
