Oger, 1868. Belongs to the Safrano 

 type. Saffron-yellow, shaded with 

 coppery- red, semi-double ; a peculiar 

 scent, not pleasing. 



W. Paul, 1874. Crimson, shaded with 

 purple. 



W. Paul & Son, 1891. " Large and full; 

 bright scar let -crimson, very vivid in 

 summer ; very free flowering." 



Lacharme, 1854. Light rose, medium size, 

 flat form, fairly good buds, very free. 

 The best in the class, after Soupert et 

 Notting. 



Crimson, medium or small size. An in- 

 ferior Agrippina. 



W. Paul & Son, 1889. Buds medium, 

 full, globular, fawn color, suffused with 

 rose, the opening flowers shaded with 

 yellow and tawny buff. Distinct and 

 handsome ; vigorous and free bloom- 

 ing. 



Guillot pere, 1859. Raised from General 

 Jacqueminot. Red, shaded with car- 

 mine-crimson, large, full, well formed, 

 highly scented. A fine rose, but now 

 surpassed by Mons. E. Y. Teas. 



P. Henderson, 1859. A sport from Her- 

 mosa. Identical with the parent, ex- 

 cept that the habit is a little more vigor- 

 ous. 



See Greville. 



ranston, 1875. Said to be a seedling 

 from Prince Camille. [We doubt this 

 parentage.] Nearly identical with Mau- 

 rice Bernardin ; the flowers may be a 

 little superior in finish, but they are 

 less freely produced. 



Laffay, 1852. Deep red ; slightly tinged 

 with, violet, medium size, well formed, 

 non-autumnal. 



Strauss & Co., 1890. Sent out by Strauss 

 & Co., of Washington, D.C. ; a very 

 free flowering white rose ; useful in set 

 designs, and as a pot plant. 



VIoreau-Robert, 1858. Deep rose tinged 

 with fawn, large or medium size, double 

 or full. Quite a good Tea.
