Tuliet. This, perliaps, is the most distinct Rose ever introduced 



: '. for color, which is unique. It is of the same type as So- 



leil d'Or, Rayon d'Or and other Austrian Briers and their hybrids.

 very little pruning; simply remove dead and useless wood. The fol- 

 lowing is the raiser's description : " Outside of petals old-gold, inte- 

 rior rich rosy red, changing to deep rose as the flowers expand. A 

 very distinct and attractive novelty, blooming both in summer and 

 autumn. Large and full, of powerful and delicious fragrance : most

Wm. R. Smith. This is, in our 



——^^^^■^—^^^^ opinion, the 

 greatest late summer and fall Rose ever 

 introduced. While a true everbloomer, 

 it is not so perfect in early summer; but 

 after most other Roses are gone, this 

 begins to come out strong and con- 

 tinues to improve until, in October 

 (here), it is cut down by frost. The 

 ueneral color effect is a peachy blush, 

 with yellow at base of petals. Thic 

 Rose has all the characteristics of the 

 Maman Cochet, from which it is descen- 

 ded, and is absolutely immune from 

 disease. Foliage is dark green, heavy 

 and leathery; young growth bronzj' red 

 In this latitude (New York City) it 

 will go through an ordinary winter with 

 out protection, but protection is advis 

 able as with other Roses. 50 cts. each 

 S2.25 for 5, S40 per 100.
