Dear Dorothy: I heard from my niece and her husband who live near
Montreal. They have had an exceptionally long season, and ENGLISH COTTAGE
has bloomed profusely this fall again. They also had good rebloom on
JENNIFER REBECCA, which was a bit of a surprise. Fond memories of the
meeting a year ago. My greetings to all. Lloyd Zurbrigg. Durham NC
