Everblooming Roses
The so-called Everblooming Roses include the Hybrid Tea and Pernetiana groups. They do not bloom all the time, but if kept healthy and growing steadily, one crop of flowers succeeds another at brief intervals.
Walter Speed. Hybrid Tea. (A. Dickson & Sons, 1909.) Lemon-yellow flowers, changing to white, with large, overlapping petals of fine substance. Vigorous.
A bedding and cutting Rose of much charm which we have observed with increasing pleasure for several years. Superb in its vigor of habit, large size, and general beauty of its blooms and still has many friends although twenty years old.

New Roses at Holland Park Show.
Surely a more notable group of new Roses was never displayed than that of Messrs. Alexander Dickson and Son of Newtownards.  This noted firm had more than two dozen of their wonderful creations displayed, not in meagre fashion, as is too frequently the case when a new Rose is first shown, but in grand quantities of a sort that demonstrates at a glance what a Rose is worth. [...] 
Perhaps the next favourite, if that be the right word where all are admired, is
Walter Speed, to which the society gave its award of merit.  This seemed a very poor award for a Rose that bids fair to supplant such a favourite as Antoine Rivoire.  The flowers are of immense size, of a deep lemon yellow colour, which fades to milky white.
