There is an interesting story about the
origin of the American beauty 1t was
first grown in Washington, and here it
attained it's renown. The late George
Bancroft, beside being a historian and
growers in America. Every year he i'm
ported cuttings from the leading flower
growers of Europe. The King of Prussia
when old Kaiser Wilhelm was king-al-
lowed the American historian to have a
slip of whatever he might fancy III the
royal conservatory.
Mr.. Bancroft's gardener used to cult
waite some of his roses in an old house
away out on L street, above Twenty
second street, in the west end OF the city.
Mrs. Grant had a florist named Field in
charge of the white house conservatory.
he was a rose7grower of rare merit ana
skill in his artistic work. One day he
happened into the old building where Mr..
Bancroft's gardener ported his plants and
budded his roses. Over in Il corner he
noticed a rose of variety utterly I'M
known to him and of wonderful size and
perfection in form and color.
wv here did this come from!' he care
lessly inquired of the rose-groWing con-
fierce.
oh it is an offshoot from some cut
tings we imported from Germany the
man replied. 1t was evident to Mr.. Field
that the other did not in the least COM
prehend the value of the new plant
After some talk Mr.. Field bought the cut
tings he had seen for S.. A year there
after when he had propagated his new
purchase and became convinced that he
had new and very valuable rose. which
he named the American Beauty, he sold
his find for $1,000 the most wonderful re-
suit of the investment of S. on record.
To follow his luck a little further Mr..
Field invested his easily earned $4,000 in
land near the city, which in a little less
than three years were sold for $o0,OO0.-
