Wichuraiana Hybrid Roses
Valentine Beaulieu
A bright pink Rose of unusual size for a Wichuraiana Hybrid, the blossoms being fully 2 inches across. They are very double, and are produced in large, compact clusters that are at once beautiful and showy. The foliage of this Rose is bright glossy green, and remains on the plants until the frosts of late fall and early winter rob it of its vitality and beauty. The Valentine Beaulieu Rose is unusually vigorous in growth, soon covering a trellis or pergola with a mass of foliage and flowers. Its hardiness, too, is worthy of note; seldom is it affected by the most severe cold weather. Taken all in all it is one of the most unusual and beautiful of the Wichuraiana Roses. The French gardens are replete with varieties of Roses of this class, and this one is among the most favored and admired. It is most highly commended for growing as shade for the porch.

Wichuraiana Ramblers. By Dr. A. H. Williams, Vice-President N.R.S.
The wichuraiana Ramblers fall naturally into two well defined groups:
I. The Early, containing those varieties whose main flowering season is in the month of June. They are mostly hybrids of R. wichuraiana with Teas, H.T.'s, H.P.'s, and Chinas. The trusses are as a rule not large, though they may sometimes contain a dozen or more blooms. The individual flowers are often large, sometimes four or five inches across.
Early Flowering Double Varieties.
Valentine Beaulieu. — A very rampant grower of trailing growth, with flexible shoots of bronzy green colour. The foliage is fine dark green and mildew-proof. The young graceful shoots have a peculiar fern-like appearance. The flowers are borne in small trusses of flat, very double blooms of deep pink colour shaded with yellow.
