8 MISS ELLA V. BAINES, THE WOMAN FLORIST, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 
THE CREAM OF THE NEW ROSES—Concluded. 
RECUERDO DE ANTONIO PELUFFO—(Soupert & Notting, 
1910.) What Soupert & Notting say about this fine Rose: 
“Madame Melanie Soupert crossed with Madame Constant 
Soupert, light diaphanous yellow with pink edged petals, ex- 
ceedingly 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 won- 
derful Rose in many ways.’ We indorse every word of the 
above. Our individual opinion is that this Rose has unques- 
tionably come to stay. It is in the way of “Madame de Watte- 
ville,”"except that it has pronouncedly yellow shades and tones. 
A grand, beautiful Rose. Be sure and try this, it will please 
you. 25 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
RENA ROBBINS (Hill, 191k) This is a grand garden Rose. 
Strong grower, producing its enormous flowers in the greatest 
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. 20 cents; two= 
year plants, 40 cents. 
ROBERT HELLER—(Hill, 1911.) 
yellow in color; quite a pure self without shadings. It is of the 
type of Perle des Jardins, but is deeper in color. Stronger in 
growth and brings perfect flowers. 20 cents; two-year plants, 
40 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 selected 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, 40 cents. 
ROBIN HOOD—(Hill, 1911.) This new Rose has a glorious 
scarlet color that is at once soft and bright and lasting; the 
bloom is full and of the beautiful build of the H. P.’s. Itisa 
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 Horticul- 
tural Society’s June Flower Show for best red Rose. 20 cents; 
two-year plants, 40 cents. 
This Rose is a deep golden- 
SOUVENIR DE GUSTAVE PRAT—(Pernet Ducher, 1911.) 
Color, clear sulphur-yellow, without any other coloring; very 
charming in tint; bud long and oval, opening into a very large 
flower that is fairly full. A fine garden Rose. 20 cents; two= 
year plants, 40 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. 1t 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.” 30 cents; two-year plants, 
60 cents. 
TITO HEKEKYAN—(Soupert & Notting, 1912.) Rosy coral- 
ted, shaded yellow. Center vivid coral-purple and deep car- 
mine. A distinct new coloring. Very large flower of fine shape. 
20 cents; two-year plants, 40 cents. 
VERNA MACKAY (Alex. Dickson, 1912.) This is a beautiful. 
delicate ivory sulphur-buff, changing to bright lemon-yellow as 
the flower expands. The flowers are carried on erect stems and 
are borne in marvelous profusion. The growth is vigorous, of 
free branching habit, every shoot being terminated by a sweetly 
perfumed flower. 25 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
WHITE KILLARNEY—(Waban Rose Company, 1909.) A sport 
from Killarney. Grand in every way. The white forcing Rose 
of the century. Superior to its parent in every particular. 
Words cannot describe its imposing grandeur. This is the 
greatest forcing Rose of any color or class. Benches of it dur- 
ing the winter give the appearance of a bank of snow. It is 
pure white in color, long in bud, of fine form; in fact, it is the 
one Rose par excellence. Planted in the garden it comes with 
a delicate pink tinge that if anything adds to its beauty. A 
great acquisition and a really wonderful Rose. 20 cents; two= 
year plants, 40 cents. 
WHITE TESTOUT—(Bide & Son, 1911.) This is identical with 
Madame Caroline Testout, except that the color is pure white. 
A grand novelty. 20 cents; two-year plants, 40 cents.
