2 MISS ELLA V. BAINES, THE WOMAN FLORIST, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 
ELLA V. BAINES STAR SET OF 
TESTED FANCY 
No 1 DUCHESS OF WELLINGTON—Intense  saffron- 
e yellow suffused with rich crimson which, as the 
flower develops, becomes deep coppery-yellow, a shade of colors 
hitherto unknown among Roses; the petals are large and of great 
substance; free flowering and of delightful fragrance. A great 
acquisition to the garden Roses. 20 cents; two-year, 40 cents. 
N 2 LAURENT CARLE—An extremely vigorous grower, 
oO. with fine erect branching habit and fine dark-green 
foliage; long buds are borne on long stems, opening into large 
flowers of perfect form, just full enough to open freely; color 
brilliant velvety carmine. A very promising variety; another 
Rose it will certainly pay to try. We know it has a future. 20 
cents; two-year, 40 cents. 
N 3 MARIE DELESALLE—As free in growth as Teplitz, 
O. flowering continuously; buds long and elegant, open- 
ing into lovely blooms of fine form and large petals; color bright 
deep cerise. A decidedly free bedding Rose. 15 cents; two-= 
year, 35 cents. 
N 4 ALEXANDER HILL GRAY—The respect of all 
O. Rose lovers warrants the issuing of a champion Rose, 
and a tea at that, to pay due homage to one of the world’s greatest 
Tea Rose growers. It is wonderfully floriferous, every shoot be- 
ing crowned with a flower bud, which develops into a bloom of 
very laige size, great substance and perfect formation, with high 
pointed center from which the petals gracefully reflex. The best 
and largest pure yellow Tea Rose yet introduced. 20 cents; 
two-year, 40 cents. 
N 5 JONKHEER J. L. MOCK—This grand Rose is the 
O. strongest growing in the Hybrid Tea class. The 
blooms, which are produced with the greatest freedom, are car- 
ried on stiff and erect stems, and are of the largest size, of perfect 
formation and highly perfumed. Color clear imperial-pink; a 
glorious flower. Awarded two gold medals, one silver medal and 
five first prizes in Europe. We can confidently recommend this 
sterling novelty as a most valuable addition. 20 cents; two-= 
year, 40 cents. 
N F. R. PATZER—A most beautiful and distinct Rose 
oO. of very free flowering character. The blooms are 
produced with great freedom on stiff stems, and are of large size 
and substance. The color is creamy-buff, back of petals delicate 
warm pink; as-the petals reflex the color becomes light o1ange- 
pink, forming a most charming combination. Valuable for garden 
culture. 15 cents; two-year, 35 cents. 
N 7 MADAME VALERE BEAUMEZ—Cream, yellow 
O. and o1ange ate the colors in this queenly Rose. All 
the tints exquisitely beautiful, form very full and nicely rounded; 
a strong grower. We feel sure that this Rose will rank in the dozen 
best bedders. ‘‘Standard”’ in all necessary qualities, ‘‘fancy’’ in 
its coloring. 15 cents; two-year, 35 cents. 
N 8 LADY ASHTOWN—Deep rose, shading to silvery- 
O- pink, with touches of yellow at base of the petals; 
large, full and fine form, free and constant. A grand garden 
Rose, much prized in England. 15 cents; two-year, 35 cents. 
N 9 OLIVIA—The ideal red bedding Rose; was always 
O. just a little ways ahead—never quite reached. Such 
varieties as Meteor, Helen Gould, General McArthur, Gruss an 
Teplitz, Etoile de France each lack something to make them ideal. 
Rhea Reid came nearer the mark in some localities, but now 
comes Olivia, coming under the wire first an easy winner. It has 
more petals in it than General McArthur and is a shade lighter 
in color than Rhea Reid, but has them both backed off the boards 
when it comes to free blooming. A superb Rose. 15 cents; 
two-year, 35 cents. 
N 10 RADIANCE—A new American Rose; there is 
O. none better. A brilliant rosy-carmine, displaying 
beautiful rich and opaline-pink tints in the open flower. The 
form is fine, largest size and full, with cupped petals. It blooms 
constantly and is delightfully fragrant. This is next to President 
Taft, the strongest growing of all H. T. Roses. Simply grand; 
superb. 20 cents; two-year, 40 cents. 
11 FRIEDRICHSRUHE—Color deep blood-red; large, 
No. full, well formed, flowering freely and continuously; 
excellent habit of growth. Awarded gold medal at Dusseldorf

No 14 MRS. FOLEY HOBBS—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 creating a bloom of exceptional merit; 
color delicate ivory-white, faintly tinged pink on the edges of the

15 cents; two-year, 35 cents.

Q “ white with deep blush center; blooms large, well 
formed, with high pointed center and carried on stiff stems. 15 
cents; two-year, 30 cents. 
No 16 MISS CYNTHIA FORD—This Rose possesses in 
~ a superlative degree the essential point of an ideal 
garden Rose, viz.: size, form, brightness, vigor and habit. In 
color it is a deep brilliant rose-pink, very large, perfectly formed 
and very full. It is sweetly perfumed and lasts a long time in 
good condition. Gold medal, N. R.S. 15 cents; two-year, 35c. 
No 17 MRS. ARTHUR E. E. COXHEAD—In this mag- 
4 nificent 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 sil- 
very sheen towards the base of the petals, giving a distinct illumi- 
nated effect to the whole bloom. A truly great variety; awarded 
the gold medal of the National Rose Society. 15 cents; two= 
year, 30 cents. 
No 18 LADY HILLINGDON—At_the Detroit Rose show 
9. in January, 1912, this was awarded the sweep- 
stakes over all yellow Roses. It has long willowy stems that are 
in no sense weak, as the buds are held upright; has a long slender 
pointed bud of brilliant deep golden-yellow, and a striking pecul- 
larity of this Rose was that each day of the show this golden-yellow 
color became deeper yellow and more intense, unlike all other 
yellow Roses of which we are familiar, as invariably the tendency 
after being cut is to get lighter in color. This Rose at no stage 
of its development shows this lighter color as does Sunburst and 
other of the yellow Roses, but is always an even, deep, intense 
golden-yellow; forces well. Awarded gold medal, National Rose 
Society. 20 cents; two-year, 40 cents. , 
No 19 DOUBLE WHITE KILLARNEY—A pure white 
e sport from White Killarney; has a much larger 
bud, double the size of the ordinary White Killarney; has many 
more petals than its parent. A great garden Rose. 15 cents; 
two-year, 35 cents. 
No 20 RAINBOW—Pink, striped and _ splashed with 
° bright carmine; good shaped buds with fine 
petals; free flowering. 20 cents; two-year, 40 cents. 
No 21 SUNBURST—tThis magnificent giant yellow Rose 
e is a fine forcer; it stands head and shoulders above 
all others of it 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. Belongs in the class of big 
Roses; has created a sensation wherever shown. 20 cents; two= 
year, 40 cents. 
N 3/9. KILLARNEY QUEEN—A cerise-pink sport of 
O. Killarney that for clearness and brightness of 
color has not been equalled; exceptionally strong in growth, with 
foliage that is perfect, being larger than. Killarney and more 
glossy. In size of petals Killarney Queen is larger than its parent, 
and for high grade bloom it is a very superior variety. Forces 
fine. 15 cents; two-year, 35 cents. 
N 23 LIEUTENANT CHAURE—Bud long and 
oO. pointed; color velvety crimson, opening to large 
flowers of crimson-red, shaded garnet; flowers of great depth and 
nicely cupped form; flowers very freely produced and deliciously 
fragrant. In every way a grand Rose. 15 cents; two-year, 35c. 
N 24 RECUERDO DE ANTONIO PELUFFO—What 
oO. Soupert & Notting say about this fine Rose: 
“Madame Melanie Soupert crossed with Madame Constant 
Soupert, light diaphanous yellow with pink edged petals, exceed- 
ingly large, very double and of irreproachable form; free flowering 
until late in autumn; opens freely; combines all the delightful 
and prominent qualities of the parents; a strong, hardy Rose with 
nice long buds. A classical Rose and a wonderful Rose in many 
ways.” I indorse every word of the above. My individual opinion 
is that this Rose has come to stay. 20 cents; two-year, 40 cents.
