We are most delighted to have them come when Roses are at their best, both spring and fall. It is gratifying to feel that there is an increased interest in both standard and novelty varieties, not only of Roses, but of other Shrubs and Perennials, including one of the best collections of Chrysanthemums in the East. At times there are occasions of especial interest. For example, when we pay our rent of one Red Rose, required in the deed to our property, or when we had the honor of enter- taining with Her Royal Party, Charlotte, the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg, the “only crowned head of Europe who is at present a refugee in this country. Her Royal Highness came from Montreal and was accompanied by the Minister of Luxembourg from Washington, D. C., and other official representatives.
