It has often been remarked by rose growers that one of their great desires was the raising or acquiring of a yellow Bride for which they would be willing to give all they possessed, but we firmly lielieve that the Bride even in its palmiest days could never touch Lady Hillingdon. Our illustrations show this rose as It is grown at the Waban Rose Conserv- atories, Natick, Mass., where it has proved to be a wonderful producer of flowers of the highest quality, which have found ready sale in the Boston stores. The growth of the plants has been remarkable, and at the time that the photographs were taken, which was in August, the appearance of the plants was what would be looked for more in April than at that time of the year. The great difference in the growth of this variety compared to Mrs. Aaron Ward is plainly shown in the illustra- tion of the house, the two being planted beside each other. We advise all rose growers that it will be to their interest to go and see this rose growing, and can assure them that they will be am- ply repaid for any expense incurred and all the time required in making the journey. They will tarry longer in their inspection of it than o/ any rose they ever saw, and we believe will leave fully satisfied that the acme of perfection has Ijeen reached in this new yellow variety.
