Rose Creations of E. G. Hill and Fred H. Lemon Result of Patience

During the past week or 10 days the latest creations of E, G. Hill and Fred Lemon, local florist?, have been made public to the citizens of Richmond. The success that has marked their efforts in cross culivation or roses lrobably has reached a climax in the production of the "Columbia," by Mr. Hill and the "Rotarian" by Mr. Lemon. In an interview Thursday with Fred

H. Lemon, son-in-law of Mr. Hill, and t

who for years worked with Mr. Hill before opening a business of his own, many interesting features of work propressing in the flortsts' field were told. Month after month, throughout the. entire year, Mr. Lemon is experimentins? in cross cultivation. This work with flowers is similar to the breeding carried on by cattlemen and poultry raisers. It is a study of kinds of flowers, their fragrance and beauty, and the abundance with which they produce. Want Winter Flowers. "America is different from other countries in flower cultivation," said Mr. Lemon, since we want our flowers to produce chiefly in the winter months, while many of the foreign countries wish their production in May and June, natural months for flowers to bloom in gardens. "The result is that we cannot use many of the foreigner's beautiful creations, but have to discard them for plants which will produce healthfully in the winter months. It is our particular work to breed flowers that will rest or sleep during the months tha'. they would naturally be most alive and make them produce when ordinarily would be resting. This makes it necessary or us to discard many of the finest breeds of foreign flowers. Must Bloom in Winter. "People often say of one of our besi greenhouse productions, 'why that flower Is no prettier than many I hav Feen in flower gardens.' That is jusl it, probably no prettier, but we hav accomplished much because we have brought forth a flower as pretty as thj garden flower and made it produce in the greenhouse, against its natura. laws. Probably it has taken us several years to find whether the new slip would live nd bloom healthfully in a greenhouse curing the winter months "In this way we are continually ex

perimenting, discarding kinds that may be pretty but not productive, for'

breeds that are both pretty and productive. We have many plants in our greenhouses that would produce some of the very best flowers in a garden, if allowed to bloom in the summer months. Hut what we want is a flower that will thrive in our greenhouses. To that end we are working continually. Cross Cultivation. Unknown to the public Mr. Lemon has many flowers which he has produced by cross cultivation, and is watching for results. Many of these are not named. The flower of which he seems most proud 13 the "Angelus." It is a rose, white in color, with a faint tinge of

cream in its center. This rose has ! lnat jt wa3 not only a beautiful hotbeen tested and -declared to be one house flower, but that it also produced of the best greenhouse roses of iis abundantly in the garden. This cornkind, Mr. Lemon is net marketing i bination is rarelv found, he said.

this rose at present, but is waiting Mr. Lemon is proud of his accom-

until he can produce the variety in i phsnments, but feels that there is so

times the health of a rose gives out and it has to be discarded. x He said that some of his roses which are now the most sturdy, may lose health in 10 years and be of no use. To give an example he cited the old "Kilarney" rose, which at one time was thriving, but now is rarely seen because of its deterioration. Roses at Mr. Lemon's greenhouses are so regulated as to bloom about nine months of the year, and rest three months during summer. To a question of how the roses could be made to sleep in the season when they wanted to produce, he said: "We allow the earth around them to get dry, then watch them steadily to prevent them from springing into life. They must have this rest in order to live." Rare Combination. He said that one of the reasons that Mr. Hill's "Columbia" rose at

tracted such national attention was

The main difference is that Its center is decidedly yellow. Rose Health Gives Out. Mr. Lemon explained that one of the reasons that experimenting had to
