New Seedling Roses Raised by Walter Easlea.
I have much pleasure to announce that I shall distribute in May my beautiful novelty, Cherry Page (H.T.) It is a variety of most attractive colouring. I have requested several artists to describe its extraordinary tint, but all agreed it was a most unique shade that baffled description. The nearest approach would be glowing carmine, suffused with golden yellow at base. The flower is not full, being little more than single; but the buds are of exquisite form and most freely produced upon stout erect growths, almost H.P. like in their sturdiness. The expanded flowers possess huge petals with a wealth of yellow stamens, that give quite a golden glow, which, combined with the reddish brown foliage, will make it an invaluable variety for all decorative purposes. Both as a summer and autumnal bloomer it is superb, and amid the thousand varieties cultivated at Danecroft, Cherry Page has attracted much notice from visitors.
The stock of plants is very limited, but as I have been requested by many clients to introduce the Rose as early as possible, I have decided to do so this spring.

There was a basket of Roses exhibited at the National Rose Show in July last which attracted considerable attention, and we have the pleasure to illustrate this basket in our present issue. The variety was named Cherry Page, after the daughter of our able correspondent, Mr. Courtenay J. Page, who is also a prominent member of the Council of the National Rose Society. The Rose belongs to the decorative section of the Hybrid Teas. Perhaps we should be correct in saying that this variety is one of the most remarkable coloured Hybrid Teas we have met with for a long time, and it is a most difficult task to define its true colouring. Mr. Walter Easlea, its raiser, informs us that there is no variety among his large collection of Roses at Eastwood that calls forth so much admiration, especially from lady visitors, as Cherry Page, and we are pleased to know he is placing it on the market next spring. The colour is a glowing orange cerise, with shading of vermilion towards the edges of the petals, and the base of the petals is a beautiful daffodil yellow. The growth is very strong and erect, sending up fine, rich ruby coloured shoots and foliage that blend so well with the lovely flowers. The Rose is semi-double, with huge petals, and during very sunny weather the flowers expand to a width of 5 inches, revealing the golden centre and a wealth of golden stamens. For table decoration we believe Cherry Page has a great future, and feel sure it will take a leading place among Roses planted for massing and general garden decoration.
