MISS ELLA V. BAINES, THE WOMAN FLORIST, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 
THE CREAM OF THE NEW ROSES—Continued 
MISS ALICE DE ROTHSCHILD 
(Alex. Dickson, 1910.)—Read what 
the introducer says: ‘“‘Not since 
the advent of ‘Marechal Niel’ has 
any Rose excited such admiration 
as this truly magnificent variety, 
which, as seen growing and flower- 
ing in our garden, was described 
by leading professional Rose grow- 
ers as a bedding ‘Marechal Niel,’ 
and up till the present time, our 
very best effort. A very flattering 
character, indeed. The color is 
rich, deep citron-yellow, which in- 
tensifies as the bloom expands. 
This color does not fade. The flow- 
ers are very large, full and of per- 
fect form, with high pointed center. 
The petals charmingly reflex. The 
growth is vigorous and erect, and it 
is free and continuous in bloom, 
deliciously fragrant (Marechal Niel 
perfume) ; superb in every respect.’’ 
Messrs. Joseph Campbell and Philip 
Kreigbaum, both of whom have 
spent the greater part of their lives 
with Roses, say: ‘Miss Alice de 
Rothschild is a wonder. You can 
put your last dollar on her being 
a winner.” 20 cents; two-year 
plants, 50 cents. 
MRS. AMY HAMMOND (McGredy, 
1911.)—It has an extraordinarily 
deep, long, very pointed flower, 
probably the most perfect shaped 
and most graceful form of any 
Rose grown; has no equal among 
bedding or garden Roses. The 
color is a blend of ivory and am- 
ber shading; the amber color is 
most pronounced and develops to 
a bright apricot towards the base 
of the petals. Many blooms de- 
velop all over this apricot shading 
to such an extent that it is charm- 
ing beyond description. Will be 
known as ‘‘Everybody’s_ Rose.” 
Awarded gold medal. 20 cents; 
two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MRS. ANDREW CARNEGIE (Cocker, 1913.) —Sent out by 
James Cocker & Sons, of Aberdeen, Scotland. This Rose is 
an epoch making flower, as an old Kentish grower put it, 
“9 nailer.” At the stand where Mrs. Andrew Carnegie was 
shown there was a big crowd around it all the time the show 
was open. Queen Alexandra admired it as she passed through 
the show in the morning before the great rush of the after- 
noon. One enthusiast describes it as having “lit up the 
whole show.” With its handsome shape and delicious fra- 
grance it combines a color that entrances. Pale lemon-yel- 
low at base of the petals shading to pure white. Won the 
gold medal N. R. S. 35 cents; two-year plants, 75 cents. 
MRS. ARTHUR E. E. COXHEAD (McGredy, 1911.) —In this 
magnificent Rose we have a new and distinct color among 
Hybrid Teas, and one very difficult to describe; claret-red, 
shaded vermilion towards the edge, with a wonderful bright 
silvery sheen towards the ‘base of the petals, giving a dis- 
tinct illuminated effect to the whole bloom. A truly great 
variety. Awarded the gold medal of the National Rose So- 
ciety. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MRS, CHARLES CUSTIS HARRISON (Alex. Dickson, 1910.)— 
Is a Rose of great beauty and distinctness. The flowers are 
produced in wonderful profusion; the blooms are large, full 
and of globular form; the petals smooth, circular and of 
great substance; color deep crimson-pink on front of petals, 
crayoned deep crimson-carmine on the reverse side, a warm 
eolor that lights up well when held in varied positions of 
light, very highly perfumed. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 
cents. 
MRS, CHARLES E. PEARSON (McGredy, 1913.) — A glorious 
orange-yellow, flushed and tinted with red, apricot and 
fawn, sweetly scented; a glorious Rose. Gold medal National 
Rose Society. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MRS. CHARLES HUNTER (W. Paul, 1912.) —A strong, vig- 
orous grower, with rosy-crimson flowers, changing to a 
pleasing rose as they fully expand. <A very bold flower, with 
large handsome petals, produced on strong, upright stalks. 
20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MRS. CORNWALLIS WEST (Alex. Dickson, 1911.) —A truly 
magnificent and absolutely distinct Rose of huge size and 
great substance, with exquisite imbricated globular form. 
The petals are very smooth, shell-shaped, leathery and en- 
trancingly beautiful. The purity of the transparent deli- 
cate pink—which is between a shell and a rose-pink—on the 
purest white gives it an attraction all its own that it is 
difficult to convey. Awafded the gold medal, N. R. S. 20 
cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MRS. E. ALFORD (Lowe & Shawyer, 1913.)—Color silvery- 
pink, large, full .flowers carried erect; strong grower and 
very free flowering. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
Prince Englebert Charles de Arenberg. 
(See description on page 7.) 
MRS. CHARLES RUSSELL (Montgomery, 1912.)—This won- 
derful new American Rose has taken the country by storm. 
No other forcing Rose except ‘‘American Beauty’ can com- 
pete with it when it comes to counting points. Stems three 
feet long, stiff and surmounted by grand rosy-pink blooms= 
of the largest size and build. Keep your eye on this Rose. 
25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MRS. EDWARD J. HOLLAND (McGredy, 1910.)—The color is 
a beautiful deep salmon-rose, shaded lighter towards the 
edges; perfect in both shape and form, with an unusually 
high pointed center. The petals are of great substance and 
beautifully arranged, forming a model flower of exquisite 
beauty, because of the marvelous freedom with which it 
produces its blooms throughout the whole season. Will 
prove one of the finest. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 
cents. 
MRS. FOLEY HOBBS (Alex. Dickson, 1910.)—This is beyond 
question the best Tea yet introduced, as it possesses in a 
most marked degree every quality necessary to constitute a 
good and perfect Rose. It is a veritable giant among Teas. 
The huge thick shell-shaped petals create a bloom of ex- 
ceptional merit; color delicate ivory-white, faintly tinged 
pink on the edges of the petals. Deliciously perfumed. This 
Rose stands without a rival. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 
cents. 
MRS. FORDE (Alex. Dickson, 1913.)—A magnificent and ex- 
quisite Rose, whose large blooms, on erect flower. stalks, are 
of perfect form and finish with daintiest colorings, which 
are certainly unique among Roses, being stained or flushed 
purest deep carmine-rose on delicate rose-pink, with a zone 
of clear chrome-yellow at the base of each petal; refresh- 
ingly fragrant, being delightfully and distinctly tangerine- 
rose perfume. Awarded gold medal N. R. S. 25 cents; two- 
year plants, 60 cents. d 
MRS. GEORGE SHAWYER (Lowe & Shawyer, 1911.)—This 
variety is a wonder for freedom of growth:and. bloom. No 
other forcing Rose can touch it on these two points. It 
throws up strong breaks in rapid succession, and a bench 
soon shows dense growth, every shoot tipped with a bud. The 
color is bright peach-pink and is carried on three and four- 
foot stems. This Rose has won awards every place shown, 
and in the past two years it has been exhibited in prac- 
tically all the shows, especially in the East and abroad. 
This Rose has made a record the past season that its intro- 
ducers should be proud of. You will make no mistake to 
plant Shawyer. From the point of quality and production 
easily the peer of any pink forcing Rose. Will be planted 
heavier than any other pink Rose and is destined to dis- 
pies ome of our old favorites. 25 cents; two-year plants, 
60 cents. 3
