he
established favourite of its
colour and class, though fashion has
in some measure pushed it aside for
newer varieties. May be grown to a
large shrub. Fragrant and hardy. Best
when in bud, as it opens rather flat.
13. Alfred Colomb. Bright crimson. Full, sweet. A
vigorous grower and entirely
satisfactory. If you can grow but one
red rose, take this.
14. Fisher Holmes. A seedling of Jacqueminot, but of
the darkest velvety crimson; fragrant,
and blooms very early.
15. Marshal P. Wilder. Also a seedling of Jacqueminot.
Vigorous and of well-set foliage.
Full, large flowers of a bright
cherry red. Very fragrant.
16. Marie Bauman. A crimson rose of delicious
fragrance and lovely shape. This does
best when budded on brier or Manette
stock, and needs petting and a diet of
liquid manure, but it will repay the
trouble.
17. Jules Margottin. A fine, old-fashioned, rich red
rose, fragrant, and while humble in
its demands, well repays liberal
feeding.
18. John Hopper. A splendid, early crimson rose,
fragrant and easily cared for.
19. Prince Camille de Rohan. The peer of dark red roses, not
large, but rich in fragrance and of
deep colour.
20. Ulrich Brunner. One of the best out-of-door roses,
hardy, carries its bright cerise
flowers well, which are of good shape
and substance; has few diseases.
