A Trial of New Roses
British Introductions of 1920.
Archie Gray (Hybrid Tea, Hugh Dickson).—Unfortunately the plant sent us was a poor one and the growth was weak, but it was shewn well at some of the exhibitions, A large, deep crimson bloom, of good shape, and large enough for an exhibition box. Hardly a free bloomer, and the foliage inclined to mildew a little.

Novelties of 1921
Archie Gray (HT.) (Hugh Dickson) Deep crimson flamed with velvety scarlet is portion of the originator's description. The colour fades, and the growth is anything but satisfactory. Cannot recommend on its performance to date.

Certificate of Merit to Archie Gray  (H.T., Hugh Dickson). A  Rose of vigorous growth,  with fine dark green foliage. The  blooms are a very fine pointed form;  and freely   produced  on  strong  upright stems, and very sweetly  scented.   The colour is a  dark claret. This is a  fine all-round Rose, and   will  prove equally good for both exhibition and garden purposes.  It is perhaps best described as a very much darker Mrs. A. E.  Coxhead. It will be placed in  commerce in June, 1918.
