Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Success With Roses, Vol. 34: The Star Rose Magazine for Rose Lovers Everywhere; October, 1961
From time to time in the growing season, I make a point of going to the rose fields to see how the new crop is getting on. I invariably get a lift from these excursions because the rose plants look so healthy and vigorous - the very picture of Nature fulfilling itself in response to ideal conditions and to the interest of the men whose responsibility it is to care for the roses. Invariably, too, I am pleased that we are able to grow such fine plants for our customers, and I wish that every gardener could see them so that he could appreciate what quality rose plants look like. I daresay that some of you would be pleasantly surprised.
This year, the crop is a very good one in more ways than one. First, the plants are in top condition - as lusty as I've ever seen them. Second, our new introductions, which are avail able this fall for the first time, are headed by an all-america winner for 1962 - and you can't do better than that! This rose is called Christian Dior after the famed French fashion designer.
