Mr. Bennett believes in the natural variation in races; others depend on crossing or hybridizing. Mr. Bennett has been and continues to be successful with his method. An English paper recently says: "Mr. H. Bennett, Shepperton, contributed two flowers of a lovely new seedling rose named Mrs. George Dixon, a large flower with broad, deep petals, of a rich satin-rose color - a lovely bit of color; and some cut blooms of another of his seedlings, W. Francis Bennett, an invaluable dark button-hole or bouquet rose, being neat and pretty in the bud, of a good dark color, and richly scented."
