8 MISS ELLA V. BAINES, THE WOMAN FLORIST, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 
THE CREAM OF THE NEW ROSES—Concluded 
RENA ROBBINS (Hill, 1911.)—This is a grand garden Rose. 
Strong grower, producing its enormous flowers in the great- 
est profusion. Comes a bright yellow, changing to a pure 
white, with golden-yellow heart. Flowers of grand form and 
a mass of bloom throughout the summer until frost. Why 
the trade fights shy of this Rose is beyond our ken. Try 
it and you will become wedded to it. No prettier or better 
Rose in this list. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
ROBERT HUEY (Alex. Dickson, 1911.)—Messrs. Dickson sub- 
mitted a number of their promising seedlings for trial to 
Dr. Robert Huey, one of Philadelphia’s most enthusiastic 
and best-posted amateur Rose growers, from which he se- 
lected this variety to name after his son. The description 
following is by Dr. Huey: “‘A strong, vigorous grower, giving 
extra fine stems for cutting; color bright carmine shaded 
deeper on the outer petals; flowers large, full and of good 
substance; buds pointed; the largest and finest of the red- 
colored Hybrid Teas; should have a rich, deep soil and good 
feeding.”” 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
ROBIN HOOD (Hill, 1911.)—This new Rose has a glorious 
searlet color that is at once soft and bright and lasting; 
the bloom is full and of the beautiful build of the H. P.’s. 
It is a grand grower, heavy caned and profuse in foliage. 
Flowers very freely produced. We feel sure this will prove a 
delightful companion for General McArthur and Rhea Reid. 
Robin Hood captured the first prize at the Massachusetts 
Horticultural Society’s June Flower Show for best red Rose. 
20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
SAINT HELENA (B. R. Cant & Sons, 1912.)—A beautiful 
cream color flushed with pink and quite blush in the center, 
golden-yellow at base of the petals. Flowers of good size 
and delightful fragrance. A decided acquisition as a garden 
Rose. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
SALMON RICHMOND (Paul & Son, 1912.) — Cherry-salmon 
color and immensely free blooming; particularly good in 
autumn. A fixed sport from the well-known Richmond. 25 
cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
SOUVENIR DE E. GUILLARD (Chambard, 1913.)—Large, full, 
sweetly scented flowers carried on long, stiff flower stalks.

ous and very floriferous. Awarded first-class certificate 
Lyons. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
SOUVENIR DE MADAME E. MULNARD (Dubreuil, 1913.)—

Abel Chatenay, but with more vigorous and with. larger 
flowers. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents.

ing growth, flowering freely and continuously on long up-

year plants, 60 cents.

peach shadings, opening to fawn-yellow with peach shading. 
Very beautiful. A fine decorative Rose. 25 cents; two-year 
plants, 60 cents. 
SUNBURST (Pernet Ducher, 1912.)—This magnificent giant 
yellow Rose is a fine forcer; it stands head and shoulders 
above all others of its color and will rank with American 
Beauty and the Killarneys in value and grandeur. It has 
long, pointed buds, which can be cut tight for market. The 
color is orange-copper or golden-orange and golden-yellow; 
edge of petals lighter; all intense shades, extremely brilliant 
in effect. Some call the color cadmium-yellow. It makes no 
difference what you call its color, it is the yellowest of all 
Roses in the ever-blooming class. Belongs in the class of big 
Roses; has created a sensation wherever shown. Yes, and 
something more must be said about this Rose. It puts all 
the yellows to sleep when it comes to bedding in the garden. 
The golden-yellow color stays right with the flower until it 
fully finishes. Better get acquainted with ‘‘Sunburst.” 25 
cents; two-year plants, 60 cents.

stems and are borne in marvelous profusion. The growth 
is vigorous, of free branching habit, every shoot being ter- 
minated by a sweetly perfumed flower. 20 cents; two-year 
plants, 50 cents. 
WHITE TESTOUT (Bide & Son, 1911.)—This is identical with 
Madame Caroline Testout, except that the color is pure 
white. <A 25 cents; two-year plants, 60
