The Recent Horvath Climbers
R. E. Shepherd, Medina, Ohio
Doubloons is well known, and no description of flower or habit should be necessary. If, as recorded, it is a combination of a Setigera seedling and an Austrian Copper seedling it is apparent that the hardiness of these two species has been lost by dilution as Doubloons is not dependably hardy in northern Ohio. Following a mild winter it is a sight to behold, but, unfortunately, our winters are usually quite severe.

[From "Une Visite chez Les Rosiéristes Américains" by Francis Meilland, pp. 33-47]
Doubloons est sans contredit le meilleur de tous, son superbe coloris jaune et sa grande résistance aux gelées les plus dures du Nord des Etats-Unis, en font une variété de grand avenir. Cette résistance particulière provient du Rosa Sétigera dont il est issu. M. H. HORVATH l'obtenteur, travaille activement le Sétigera , et il a déjà obtenu des résultats très encourageants dans le sens de la résistance au froid, problème de toute importance dans ces contrées où le thermomètre descend souvent à - 30^o centigrade.
