RED HYBRID TEA ROSES, continued 



'A'HADLEY. (Illustrated above.) Rich, glorious red, shading to velvety purple. 

 Flower is double, of fine form, and very sweet. If you will cut the buds early, 

 you will find little reason to object to its bad habit of losing its fine color when 

 it fades. Fairly hardy, a moderate grower, but not a liberal bloomer, except as 

 a greenhouse Rose. Best in the cooler sections of the country. A. R. S. Gold 

 Medal, and deserves it, for it is one of the American-raised sorts that has 

 reached world prominence. $1 each.

(Illustrated above.) The massive glowing 

 carmine blooms of this fine Rose are probably the 

 largest of all red Hybrid Teas. The buds are solid, very dark, and open 

 slowly to big, bold blooms of finest form, with broad, deep petals of great 

 substance. Its high-built, pointed center can only be equaled by those 

 Hybrid Perpetuals whose flowers were carefully bred for exhibition. The 

 wide-open flower is unusually pleasing in shape, and holds its color. Fragrance 

 is strong and well retained until the petals fall. It is a dependable bloomer if 

 protected against black-spot, and even in the hottest weather will produce 

 fine blooms, but not in any great quantity at one time. It grows vigorously, 

 but quite low and branching, so that although the flowers are unsurpassed 

 for cutting, the stems are not always long. $1 each. 



*H. V. MACHIN. This Rose makes a hearty splash of bright, true red, with 

 brave flowers firmly set on sturdy stems. The large buds are very dark, and 

 remain in the lovely half-open state for several days; they also sometimes ball. 

 The open Rose is fully double, but quite loose in the center and much brighter 

 than the bud, and is not very fragrant. The color is apt to "blue." It is not a 

 continuous bloomer, the flowers coming in crops, two or three times a season. 

 This Rose is very close to the Hybrid Perpetuals, which it resembles in vigor, but 

 does not grow so tafl. It is very hardy, but somewhat subject to black-spot. 

 A Rose with certain failings, but too beautiful to miss ; especiafly efi"ective in 

 masses. N. R. S. Gold Medal. $1 each.
