... In 1869 I raised H.P.'s Mrs. Laxton, probably from Mme. Victor Verdier, Charles Darwin from Madame Julie Daran, this being the dark H.P., Rose of Bourbon blood par excellence, of which I sowed the seed in that year, and Emily Laxton perhaps from Abel Grande.

P. seedling Rose is G. S. Burgess, but unfortunately some wag, who attended the exhibition, removed the proper name and placed on it a 'substitute,' in the form of" Bob Demmins," which, by the way, was not recognized by Mr. Burgess till the close of the exhibition." ...

Gem of the Prairies It is one of the most valuable acquisition made to our collection of Roses that has been originated in the last ten years. Being a hybrid between the well known climbing rose, Queen of the Prairies, and the Hybrid Perpetual, Madame Laffay; it possesses the climbing qualities of the Prairie Rose, with the richness of color and delicious fragrance of the Hybrid Perpetual. The color is of a light shade of crimson, occasionally blotched with white. The flowers are large, perfectly double, and of fine form, which are borne on trusses, numbering from ten to twenty buds on each. This will, not doubt, become a standard sort, possessing, as it does, all the free growing character of a climber, with the color of the hybrid perpetual class.
