    NOTES ON NEWER ROSES.
    (An interview with P. Joseph Lynch, of the Dingee & Conard Co., by G. C. Watson.)

    Among the promising roses for the future not only for the garden but for greenhouse culture we think Intensity and Olivia, both H.T.'s, stand a good show. Intensity is the deepest crimson maroon with large, full double flowers, and quite fragrant. Olivia is a deep rose, almost unique in color, of fine substance and has most beautiful buds.

    How can this rose released in 1908 be from a 1975 rose?
    Not sure if the photo is correct but it is what was labelled as Intensity at ER.

    Can't be, parentage corrected. Thank you for the heads up!

    Thought it must have been a slip of the keyboard.
