Excerpt from Commercial Rose Culture Under Glass and Outdoors: A Practical Guide to Modern Methods of Growing the Rose for Market Purpose To Mr. Cook the rosarians of America are indebted for the dissemination of much knowledge concerning the Rose as adapted to American culture, and its commercial possibilities. To him, also, we are indebted for many varieties resulting from his skill and years of patient labor and experiment in hybridization, among them, Souvenir de Wootten, the first Hybrid Tea Rose raised in America, Marion Dingee, Annie Cook, Mrs. Robert Garrett, Baltimore, Enchanter, Cardinal, Madonna, My Maryland, Radiance and Mrs. John Cook, one of the latest productions, some of which have become staples in the underglass production of Roses for the requirements of the great flower markets. The liberality with which his knowledge, obtained at the expense of countless experiments and failures, has always been placed at the service of others, has endeared him to all followers of his craft, one which, more than any other, demands the acme of patience and self-sacrifice in order to accomplish lasting results.
