The Garden: An Illustrated Weekly Journal of Gardening in all its Branches, 73: 253 (May 22, 1909) Eynsford Beauty THIS lovely single Rose is s dwarf sport from the beautiful American Pillar, which created so much interest when shown last year. Like its prototype, the flowers of Eynsford Beauty are large and of a charming pink hue, this colour fading to creamy white at the bases of the petals. In addition they are deliciously fragrant. The blooms are said to last a very long time when open, a trait that will render it a most valuable variety for decorative purposes. At present the plants show no signs of reverting back to American Pillar. The blooms are freely borne in dusters, as will be seen in the accompanying illustration. This sport has been secured by Messrs. H. Cannell and Sons of Swanley, Kent, who, it will be remembered, exhibited American Pillar so finely last year. Eynsford Beauty was shown by them at the Royal Horticultural Society's meeting on the 4th inst., when the plants created a considerable amount of interest.
