A nother edition of this valuable book is called for, as it still holds the premier position amongst Eosarians, especially the Rose Exhibitor as distinct from the Rose lover. There are portions of the book as to which there may be two opinions, and which we are sure the writer would have altered or modified if he had lived to revise this 4th edition. The improvement in Eoses has been great, especially in those Eoses, called Garden or Decorative, largely drawn from the class of Hybrid Teas. This class was in its infancy when the author wrote this book, and he had little liking for it; the oldE osarian sintense love for the Hybrid Perpetual made him look with anything but a welcoming eye upon this new intruder into his favourites demesne. But one must move with the times and the Hybrid Tea has not only come to stay but has revolutionised our gardens and theE xhibition tent as well.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
