Roses. By Dr O'Donel Browne M.D. [...] Dr. O'Donel Browne. — A grand strong grower, very nearly a H. P. in manners and customs, but a true H. T. Most of the gardening papers when reporting on it at the autumn show of N. R. S. made it a H. P., but its parents (I know them) are a H. P. and a pure Tea. The flowers I have seen of it are large, semi-globular, very full; best in the autumn. Colour — rosy carmine, but the perfume, this is glorious; I know of no rose that can equal it. I am sorry I cannot show a photo of this flower, as I cut my pot plants away for budding purposes, and I had hoped the raisers would send me a representative flower to photograph, but they have not done so. A truly grand flower, which everyone ought to, and will, I am sure, grow when they know its good qualities and glorious scent. The latest gold medal winner.

Seedling H. T. Rose — "H. Armytage Moore."

This is described by the raiser, Mr. Hugh Dickson, Royal Nurseries, Belfast, as a Garden Rose par excellence, and is an outstanding example of latter-day efforts of the hybridist to give us a type of rose with vigorous growth, great freedom of bloom, and a thoroughly perpetual habit, with that long-pointed bud and handsome foliage which are two of the most essential qualities of a rose for massing in the garden. The flower is of great depth, with large shell petals, nicely reflexed at the edges; the colour is a delightful shade of rosy pink on the outside of the petals, the inside of the petals being a bright, silvery pink. As a decorative or bedding rose this is a most valuable addition to the Hybrid Teas. O'D. B.

Rose "Moonlight."
In the garden at the Rectory, Fethard, Co. Tipperary, on Sunday, October 30th, I saw for the first time a splendid bed of the beautiful Hybrid Musk Rose, "Moonlight," raised by Rev. J. W. Pemberton in 1913. Very dark green, shining, evergreen foliage, stems deep red, and fine clusters of very fragrant, lemon-white, semi-single flowers, with yellow stamens, in great profusion. There were five plants in the round bed, the centre one growing about 5 feet high and fairly upright, the others arching gracefully outwards. The Rector tells me that this Rose is perpetual flowering, and lasts a long time in the house. The extraordinary summerlike weather we are having this autumn leads one to expect quite a wealth of bloom, but the picture I saw of Rose "Moonlight" was somewhat startling, and a sight never to be forgotten. This Rose will be a welcome addition to the "bush" Roses which when planted in groups, add many beautiful corners to our gardens. R. C. McM. S.  Nov., 1921.

Obituary — Andrew Campbell.
The death of Andrew Campbell of St. Anne's, Clontarf, arouses a keen feeling of sorrow in all gardening circles in lreland, and is a great loss to the country. [...] The following extracts from a touching tribute written by Lady Ardilaun is the highest testimony which can be paid to the character of one of the best and most estimable gardeners we have known in Ireland for many years, and whose loss we all mourn. [...] "In his own line he was a distinguished man. He came to St. Anne's in the year 1869 at the age of 17; he was a boy in the Bothy when I married and came there in 1871. He rose to be foreman. and, after some years, went to my cousin, Harry Herbert, of Muckross, and to the Railway Hotel at Killarney, as Head Gardener. In these two places he remained for 6 years, and then came to us at Ashford as Head Gardener, where he was for 14 years, and returned to St. Anne's in 1895. so that he has been with us for the whole of his working life, 48 years, with the exception of the 6 years that he was at Killarney. As you know, he raised the fine Lobelias, Firefly, Lord Ardilaun and Gloire de St. Anne's, besides other seedlings which we did not name, and he was the first raiser of a seedling from the white Anemone Honorine Joubert, which he named Lady Ardilaun, and which at the time made a great sensation, and was noticed by French nurserymen. He also raised at St. Anne's the charming little Rose,  Souvenir de St. Anne's. [...] "
