96 THE ROSE BOOK 



formed flowers, white tinged with faint pink ; it is said 

 to be unusually hardy for a Tea rose. 



Mrs. Myles Kennedy. — A beautiful rose, with large, 

 pale, buff- white blooms of perfect form. It is, however, 

 not much use in the garden, though valuable to the 

 exhibitor. 



Mrs. Sophia Neate. — A hardy and vigorous Tea, an 

 excellent variety for the garden. If one may grumble 

 at all, it is because the blooms do not come quite so 

 freely as they might do. The colour is bright salmon and 

 rose-pink, and the flowers are of fair size and good form. 



Nita Weldon. — A blush-white Tea that can be recom- 

 mended. It grows well, and has large, full blooms of 

 good form, which, however, droop badly. 



Papa Gontier. — An old and favourite Tea rose, with 

 lovely rose-crimson buds that too soon become full- 

 blown flowers. It is only fairly strong growing, though 

 it blooms freely. 



Paula. — A charming Tea for the garden ; the sulphur- 

 yellow, fragrant flowers are small, though freely produced 

 by a plant that grows well. 



Peace. — Those who grow that charming Tea rose, 

 G. Nabonnand, already described in this list, will prob- 

 ably care to have Peace, which is a cream- white " sport " 

 from G. Nabonnand. It is an excellent autumn rose. 



Princesse de Sagan. — A good rose for bedding or 

 massing. It is only of moderately vigorous growth, but 

 its deep-red blossoms, with no claims to fine form, make 

 a striking display.
