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.
Captain F. Bald. Hybrid Tea. (A. Dickson & Sons, 1919.) Black buds and velvety crimson flowers of fine incurved form with large, tulip-like petals; slightly fragrant. Moderate, upright growth with light green somewhat crinkled foliage; fine autumn bloomer.
We thought highly of it at first, but it has failed to "‘catch on.” It is an excellent red sort, and should be given a trial.
