CHOOSING YOUR HYBRID TEAS 



The choosing of these varieties is because of 

 their coining within at least two of the five points 

 of excellence that we will use as the base in deter- 

 mining our selection. 



There are of course numerous other varieties 

 very worthy of inclusion in this list, and the aim 

 here is not completeness, but rather an acceptable 

 start, with the expectation that the rose lover will 

 from time to time add to the list of his or her own 

 volition as circumstances permit. 



Each Rose here named will be given numbers to 

 designate the various points of excellence, ( 1 ) for 

 length of stem; (2) for fragrance; (3) doubleness 

 of form; (4) prolific bloom; (5) long pointed bud 

 types. 



It will be readily seen that this list will enable 

 the veriest of amateurs to select such varieties as 

 most appeal to them. 



We therefore list the following sorts as coming 

 within our classifications : 



345 Alexander Hill Gray. 



Lemon-yellow, shading darker at 

 maturity.
