46 THE ROSE BOOK 



Madame Melanie Soupert. — A very beautiful rose of 

 rosy-carmine and yellow shades. The blooms are of fine 

 form, but the plant is none too floriferous. 



Madame Ravary. — One of the best of the yellow 

 roses. It is invariably healthy, and blooms well. The 

 colour is orange-yellow. A good garden rose. 



Madame Segond Weber. — A splendid variety ; flowers 

 rosy-salmon, of large size and perfect form. One of the 

 best of recent roses. 



Marquise de Sinety. — A rose of remarkable colour, 

 golden-yellow and red. Not a very strong grower, but 

 sturdy. The young growths and foliage are finely 

 coloured. 



Melody. — Deep saffron-yellow ; a first-rate novelty - 

 much liked for forcing. Of free growth. 



Mildred Grant. — A big rose of not very attractive 

 colouring ; silvery-white and pink. It is liable to mildew, 

 and is more valuable for exhibition than the garden. 



M. Paul Lede. — An established favourite. Its growth 

 might be better, but in many gardens it is a great success. 

 Colour, cinnamon-pink. 



Mrs. Alfred Tate. — Coppery-red, shaded lawn. The 

 buds are unusually long, opening to a semi-double flower. 

 Growth good. 



Mrs. Amy Hammond. — Cream, shaded amber. A fine 

 big bloom, and of lovely form. Growth vigorous. 



Mrs. A. R. Waddell. — This is one of the newer roses 

 of fascinating colouring ; the buds are rosy-red, while 

 the flowers show tints of salmon and apricot. Seen at 

 its best when a number of plants are grouped together.
