SUITABLE DISTRICT
ROSE CULTURE IN WAIKATO SOCIETY CONGRATULATED “ From the blooms I have seen ai shows in Hamilton, I am convinced the Waikato is a good rose-growing district,” said Mr E. Hosking, who, with Mr G. J. Hollmger, judged at the Hamilton Horticultural Society’s rose show yesterday. Mr Hosking said he considered that the cold climate at certain times of the year probably made rose culture so success*U!phe judges congratulated the society on the excellent display of blooms, and described the champion bloom, a Dorina Neave, exhibited by Mrs H A. Bradley, of Te Aroha, as a beautifully built flower. In number the entries were good and the society was to be commended in staging a show especially for roses. Varieties which were prominent among the best blooms were Empire Queen McGredy's Yellow, Golden Dawn,’ Catherine Kordes, Una Wallace, Lemon Pillar, Rose Berkeley and W. E. Chaplin.
