NEW CLASS OF ROSES, " Hybrid Tea." 



The introduction of this new section of roses has created a 

 great sensation and marks a new era in the history of the 

 " favorite flower." As the name indicates, these varieties 

 are obtained by crossing the Tea or everblooming varieties 

 with the Hybrid Perpetnals. The results of this hybridization 

 are a race of roses which combine, to a great extent, the 

 free-flowering qualities of the Teas with the richer colors, 

 larger size and exquisite fragrance of the Hybrid Perpetnals. 

 Beauty of Stapleford. Light pinkish rose; deep rosy cen
