ROSE 
Theodore Roosevelt 
HIS beautiful Rose was shown on 
C the colored plate last year. It is 
a seedling of ‘‘ La France,’’ much 
stronger in growth and has a better 
Bis Y, : constitution. The freedom of bloom is 
cant AEN | A Yj remarkable; small plants begin bloom- 
i \\ a : ing at once and produce flowers in 
fi y continuous succession throughout the 
ill j season. The buds are full, long and 
Bo wl ip p Z ‘ pointed; the open flowers never show 
» YY Z G7 a centre and remain fresh and pleasing 
for a remarkably long time. The 
color is creamy-white with pink shad- 
ings in the depths of the petals, the 
coloring being pronounced in the 
centre. It is a grand Rose for the 
garden; its freedom of bloom and magnificent 
flowers render it extremely valuable. It is 
deliciously fragrant. (See cuz.)

“A GRAND NEW.... 
Yellow Tea Rose 
SOUVENIR DE PIERRE NOTTING. 
HIS grand new Rose was raised by the well-known 
rosarians, Soupert et Notting, of Luxembourg, and has 
been well tested in this country, showing that it is well 
adapted to our climate. It is of strong, bushy habit, with 
splendid, deep green foliage, strong and healthy, so that it is: 
| My 
almost immune against disease. It never was attacked by 
mildew last summer, when nearly all Roses were badly affected 
by that scourge. 
The flowers are very full, large and extraordinarily last- 
ing, keeping over a week when cut. The buds are very long, 
of a most beautiful shape and stand proudly erect on long, 
straight stems. The color is yellow with very delicate Chinese 
pink and saffron-yellow shadings; the centre of the flower is 
a very rich golden-yellow. It is delightfully fragrant. 
In its abundance of blossoms this grand new variety sur- 
passes almost all other Roses of every type; plants of a few 
months’ growth are never without buds or blossoms throughout 
the season. While the first flower-buds are developing on top 
new growths appear below bearing another crop, and this is 
succeeded by others. 
We recommend this grand Rose most highly for the garden 
and also for indoors. (See cut.)
