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.
Miss Cynthia Forde. Hybrid Tea. (H. Dickson, 1909.) Sparkling pink, very double, perfectly formed flowers, with each petal sharply outlined and pointed with a thin, light edge; very fragrant. Plant is of strong growth, erect in habit, liberal with its flowers, and reasonably healthy.
A Rose of the utmost dependability and service. One of the best for garden decoration and cut-flowers. Just as satisfactory as the Radiance type and has much more character in its shape. Excellent in fall.

Miss Cynthia Forde (Hugh Dickson, 1909). — Another Rose that is on the border-line between exhibition and garden. That it has possibilities in the first class is proved by the fact that a bloom of it shown by the raisers secured the silver medal at the last autumn show of the National Rose Society for the best Hybrid Tea in the show. It is a brilliant rose pink in colour, with distinct claims to be reckoned the best flower of its colour for the garden. Very free-flowering throughout the season, good habit of growth, nearly mildew-proof, if not quite, delicately perfumed, altogether one of the best Roses that Messrs. Hugh Dickson have given us. A pink Antoine Rivoire is, I see, a note I made of this Rose when first seen some five years ago in the raisers* nurseries, and that is not praising it too highly. As a bedder I am inclined to put it before Caroline Testout or Lady Ashtown. Gold medal at the National Rose Society's autumn show, 1909. ....Southampton. Herbert E. Molyneux.
