For the keen gardener such a record is of value to enable the effect of special or new treat- anentS to be gauged, but it also gives a.rneasure of flowers which occupy space unjustified by their flowering period, a consideration of especial vane where space is limited and the best .possible showing is desired. Because this is the first year any attempt has been made • to record perform- ance in any detail, the results can only be of use as a com- parator for succeeding years. Further, the results obtained from the same plant in one garden may bear ,,little relation- ship to :those prevailing in an- other one, where soil, light and culture differ. The periods stated below only pretend to be accurate to within seven days. The Jnonths were divided into weeks and flowering during a given week only noted; not the exact date nor the number of days duringwhich flowers were presentable. Even with such a coarse time measurement some interesting facts emerge. Starting with -,the bulbs, the record gives to crocus three weeks of flowering life. Ilya - nth is, Darwiir`n'i ni ufmaana tulip gave four weeks of bloom. Empdror tulips only two weeks. It is also brought out that plant- ing both Kaufmaniana and Dar- �win tulips, a fiowering period of eight weeks is obtainable since, as the former wilted, the Dar- ter. on "tefugees in Hong Kong was taken by -Mrs. Lewis Ruddy. Mrs. John McNichol, • of Blyth, was the guest speaker and spoke on "Why we have a Prayer Book."' She also spoke on the new revised Anglican prayer book. Mrs. G. R. Taylor_played several accordion solos. The president, Mrs. Thomas Haggitt, took charge of the business part of the meeting and the minutes were read by the secretary, Mrs: Davies. The.fnaricial state- ment was given by Mrs. Gordon R. Taylor. The members voted to give a donation- to the D.V. B.S. A children's program of races and games was conducted by Carole Brown and Ruth Schneider with prizes given to the winners. A successful auc- tion was held with Rev. R. F. Meally and Mrs. Ed. Davies in charge. A picnic lunch was served by Mrs. Schneider, her 'wins took over. „Special narcis- sus such as La Riarte and Aran- `'3'o- KAtuc Ad !P cumuon daffodils lave four'." Trillium lasted" four to five weeks .ax- tka. eIl � as simIflower and marsh marigold three weeks each. Polyanthus ilovder- ed for eight weeks. Geum too, is good value, giving five weeks of color and is far too little seen in Goderich gardens. The com- mon red d peonies gave only two weeks while white took over after the red and gave foto weeks as did some of the single peonies. The little rock plant, Aubretia, which is not grown as much as it deserves, lasted nine weeks. Coral Bells are still go- ing strong and will give seven weeks, whereas oriental poppies only lasted over a two week period. It is far "too early to report on coreopsis or lace pinks, both of which have bloom- ed for five weeks up to the 15th of July, while pansies have been in bloom for 11 weeks to date. Roses present a somewhat dif- ferent recording problem. Climbers for example vary very much. Golden Doubloons have a very short life while Blaze seems much longer lasting. Ram- blers are just beginning, so nothing can be said of them as yet. As regards tea roses and floribundas, it was decided to count buds_.befcirr<..•-?ny._flowers. had appeared -and= -fir disbudding was undertaken. On both old and new (October 1960) plants of tea roses the bud count averaged 6.8 buds per hush. For the Floribundas it was 26.5 buds per bush. As this is written the first blooming -of the H.T.'s is about over and they are mak- ing growth and buds for their second blooming. It will be pos sible to count the buds again and compare,with the first crop. For the Floribundas this would be difficult and inaccurate so, probably, no attempt will be made to bud -count these a sec- ond time. Father Hugo, the shrub rose lasted in bloom .over three weeks and is now a beauti- ful lacy green shrub' Now that all the H.T. bushes have ,bloomed it is possible too, within the. limitations of the .articular bushes planted, to make some remarks on hb"w roses chosen from a catalogue description measured up..
