I had all my life been a theoretical rose-lover, but this labor of love for the rose impelled me to make my relationship practical. This increasingly pleasant rose contact has reached into every state and province of the United States and Canada, as well as across both oceans to all of Europe, to the Philippines, Japan and CHina, to Australia, Ceylon and New Zealand. It has made possible the assembling annually of a record of American rose progress, with side-lights from all the world.
