Fourth — The Hytrid Tea or Everhlooming Class and Varieties. — 

 These are the roses that are taking the lead, and most of the newer in- 

 troductions are among them. They begin to bloom early in the season, 

 keep on blooming and blooming, until "Jack Frost" comes along, and 

 if he delays his visits from a week to ten days between times, he will 

 find a fresh crop of flowers to pluck. 



The flowers are not as large as are some of the Hybrid Perpetuals, 

 but are of finer texture and sweeter scented ; buds usually longer and 

 more pointed. It will pay any lover of roses to try this class, even if 

 extra precautions must be taken to carry them through the winter, as 

 for instance, the pinning down of the branches with forked sticks and 

 the covering of same with earth. 



As the list of varieties in this class is a very long one, we will only 

 name some that have soecial merit and distinct colors, and are known 

 to be hardiest : •
