MESSRS. PAUL AND SON of the Old Nurseries, Cheshunt, are to be commended on one of their latest acquisitions to our garden Roses, and the fact that the colour is a beautiful crimson shade will delight many to whom a series of very pale tints has become somewhat wearisome. The Dandy is, we feel sure, the forerunner of glowing crimson and allied colours, which are so much desired in gardens. It is exceptionally free, has Bardou Job for one of its parents, and the fragrance is strong and deliciously sweet.
Our coloured illustration shows its colouring and shape. So free and strong a garden Rose is sure to win popularity. This well-known firm is to be congratulated on a distinct success.
