There are comparatively but few varieties of roses suitable for
producing an abundance of flowers in winter, and these would not be
called the finest varieties for summer culture. They are selected for
their buds. The Safrona for instance, is selected for its deep, saffron
colored buds; the full flower is but semi-double. We will give the
names of a few of the roses best adapted for winter culture.
Lamarque, white, tinged with straw color.
Safrona, saffron yellow, free bloomer.
Agrippina, rich deep crimson, free bloomer.
La Pactole, light canary-color, abundant bloomer.
Hermosa, rosy pink, most prolific variety.
Gloire de Dijon, large, full, buff, shaded to salmon.
