full, carried on strong and erect flower stalks; the color is

low in the center as the bloom develops; has the delicious, 
refreshing perfume of the Tea Roses. Awarded by a unan-

MADAME CHARLES LUTAUD (Pernet Ducher, 1912.) —A

are almost thornless; foliage broad and nicely bronzed; bud 
very long and pointed on long stems. The bloom is large 
and full. Color, rich chrome-yellow, with rosy-scarlet on 
the outer petals. Has Marquis Sinety blood, but very dis- 
tinct from that variety. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MADAME EDMOND ROSTAND (Pernet Ducher, 1912.)—De- 
lightfully free. Strong grower, with but few thorns and 
small ones at that. Bud long and beautifully formed, open- 
ing into a surprisingly large, full flower with immense outer 
petals. Color, clear pink, with salmon shadings and red- 
dish-orange center, every tint clear and beautiful. The 
finest of the “‘Antoine Rivoire” type on account of its bril- 
liant coloring. A grandly beautiful Rose. 25 cents; two- 
year plants, 60 cents.

of pink with tones of flesh color, and a center of deep golden- 
yellow. A very free flowering Rose and extremely attractive.

MADAME JULES BOUCHE (Croibier, 1911.) —A beautiful 
white, suffused with salmon-pink center, deeply shaded with 
virginal-pink; large and full. This Rose has won numerous 
medals and awards. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MADEMOISELLE BLANCHE MARTIGNAT (Gamon, 1904.)— 
Like so many of the good continental Roses, we just hap- 
pened to have the good luck to run onto this superior Rose 
by chance. Why it has been neglected so long is beyond 
our comprehension. The only solution to the question, ‘‘lost 
in the shuffle,” is probably the appropriate answer. Growth 
free and the foliage is quite distinct, both in shape and 
color. The shape is extremely long and pointed. It has a 
distinct light silvery color. The flowers are beautiful peach- 
, Dink, with tints of yellow and crimson, the same colors as 
"geen in the Aurora Borealis, 20 cents; two-year plants, 50c. 
MADAME LUCIEN BALTET (Pernet Ducher, 1911.) — Rosy- 
flesh, shaded yellow. Petals bordered carmine, large, full 
and globular. A very free blooming garden Rose. Distinct 
and useful. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MADAME MAURICE RAFIN (Bernaix, 1913.)—Center of flower 
- bright carmine with beautiful ponceau-red reflexes, outer 
petals clear rose. Very large and carried on long, stiff 
stems. Growth vigorous. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MADAME P. EULER (Guillot, 1908.) — We place this Rose 
among the newer varieties so that particular attention may 
be called to it. Out in California and the Pacific Coast this 
Rose is so well thought of that it has been rechristened 
“Prima Donna.” The color is a lovely shade of vermilion- 
pink, changing to silvery-pink; petals undulated or waved 
on the edges; in a class by itself. We have every confidence 
in it as a sterling variety with an individuality that. was 
bound to command attention, and time is proving same not 
unfounded. Its size, fragrance, wonderful lasting qualities, 
freedom of growth and bloom with a distinctiveness from 
any other Rose could not help but win a commanding place. 
20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MADAME RAVARY (Pernet Ducher, 1889.)—Not a new Rose, 
but not largely disseminated in this country. It is probable 
that more of this yellow Rose is planted in England, Ireland 
and the Continent than all other yellows combined. In 
growth and habit it is much like Madame Caroline Testout, 
and will always command a good price, being difficult to 
propagate. Long pointed buds of beautiful golden-yellow, 
opening to large, full orange-yellow flowers; very free flow- 
ering. Superb. 25 cents; two-year'plants, 50 cents. 
MADEMOISELLE DE VALLE DE QUINTELLA (Schwartz, 
1913.)—A very large and full flower of magenta-red, reverse 
of petals rosy-white striped carmine, base of petals golden- 
yellow. Growth very vigorous. 25 cents; two-year plants, 
60 cents. 
MADISON (Brandt Hentz, 1912.)—This is the ‘“money maker” 
among the cut flower Roses, and is a greatly improved Bride, 
and when we say improvement, we mean a genuine improve- 
ment. The best feature of Madison is that the foliage does 
not mildew. All know how badly the Bride mildews. Well, 
Madison is mildew-proof. Then after being planted and well 
established, Madison will cut as many flowers as Killarney, 
cutting steady each month in the year. Madison is a grand 
addition to our list of forcing Roses. Remember, that ‘‘Mad- 
ison” is the money maker. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 
cents. 
MAMAN LYLY (Soupert & Notting, 1912.) — Delicate rosy- 
flesh: -Very large, splendid Malmaison form, freely and con- 
stantly produced. The best of all rosy-flesh colored Roses. 
20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MARGUERITE MONTAVON (Soupert & Notting, 1913.)—Very 
large, of perfect form and of superb substance. Color a 
bright China Rose. On account of its extreme freedom of 
blooming this new Rose will take the lead as a commercial 
variety, and prove invaluable for exhibition and bedding 
purposes. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MARIE ADELAIDE GRAND DUCHESS OF LUXEMBOURG 
(Soupert & Notting, 1913.)—Flowers of a marvelously con- 
stant deep orange-yellow coloring. Elegant form, borne on 
erect stems; deliciously perfumed. This is a most superb 
Rose. Awarded gold medal at Nancy, 1912. Extra fine. 25 
cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MELODY (A. Dickson, 1911.)—A most charming and decidedly 
beautiful Rose, which attracted the attention of all visitors 
to our Rose gardens during the past summer because of its 
marvelous free-blooming qualities. The blooms are of good 
size; the color is an intense, pure, deep saffron-yellow, with 
primrose edges, a delightful color harmony. A Rose of the 
highest merits. 20 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MEVROUW DORA VAN TETS (Leenders, 1912.) —A chaste 
Rose of great beauty. The habit of growth is perfection, 
every shoot producing a bloom, a veritable pearl for garden 
decoration. The color is a deep glowing crimson; a flower 
you want to linger with, and which you visit again and 
again. This is another most valuable garden Rose sent out 
by that painstaking Dutchman, M. Leenders, of Steil- 
Tegelan, who has already enriched for all time our gardens 
with the grand varieties ‘‘Jonkheer J. L. Mock,” ‘‘Garten- 
director Hartrath’” and “General Superior Arnold Janssen.” 
Your friends will make no mistake in planting this Rose. 20 
cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
MI-LADY (Pierson, 1913.)—A cross between “Richmond” and 
“J. B. Clark.” Color similar to “Richmond.” Large, full, 
well-formed flowers carried on stiff, erect stems. Very .fra- 
grant and a fine keeper. Has jumped into popularity as a 
forcing Rose, but is, we think, more suited as a garden Rose. 
25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents. 
MILDRED GRANT (Alex. Dickson, 1901.) —Ivory-white, with 
an occasional flush of pale peach. High pointed center, with 
unusually large and massive petals, opening to perfectly 
formed flowers of enormous size and substance. Awarded 
the gold medal of N. R. S. We are the only firm in the 
United States offering this Rose on its own roots in young 
plants. It is a grand Rose. 50 cents; no two-year size 
to offer. 
MONSIEUR R. ARNAUD (Perdriolle, 1912.)—Deep pink, shaded 
yellow and crab-red; very free flowering and exquisitely 
perfumed. A glorious Rose. 20 cents; two-year plants, 
50 cents.
