NOVELTY ROSES. Yet under test 



*La Champagne. A new Hybrid Tea from France described as peach-pink, 

 center bright chamois and apricot; gro^^'th vigorous and free-blooming. $1.50 each. 



*LADY MARY WARD. Still in the Novelty class with most people. Flowers 

 are of medium size; orange, shaded deeper apricot-orange with metallic glaze — 

 a wonderful color. Not a vigorous grower, but a fair bloomer; hardy. $1.50 each. 



•LA ROSE DE MADAME RAYMOND POINCARE. Flowers are bright 

 Persian yellow in center with outer petals of salmon-pink and lighter yellow. The 

 long buds open to full, cupped blooms of large size and are freely produced on 

 rigid stems. We label this Mme. Poincare. Bagatelle Gold Medal. $2.50 each. 



*MABEL MORSE. A clear bright yellow Rose of moderate size, sweetly 

 perfumed. The color fades somewhat, but it is retained better than the older 

 varieties. Has superb glossy foliage, almost immune to disease. A good bloomer 

 but not a vigorous grower; most promising. N. R. S. Gold Medal. $2 each. 



*MISS WILLMOTT. Fine and beautifuHarge flowers of pale sulphur-white, 

 lightly tinted with pink. It is a remarkably free-blooming variety, especially 

 in the fall, and should be widely tested. N. R. S. Gold Medal. $1.50 each. 



*Mrs. Beckwith. (See illustration, page 38.) Buttercup-yellow, lighter on 

 edges of petals. Ovoid bud, opening into a medium-sized, full, well-shaped flower. 

 Grows erect and vigorous with few thorns. N. R. S. Certificate of Alerit. $2.50 each. 



•MRS. CALVIN COOLIDGE. A deep golden yellow sport of Ophelia, ap- 

 pearing quite well in the shows but not jet fully tested outdoors. The color is 

 lovely, and the form all that can be desired, but the flower is rather small in size. 

 A. R. S. Silver Medal. $2 each. 



•PADRE. (Illustrated above.) A Mme. Edouard Herriot of improved form 

 and even more brilliant color — intense orange-red. A tail-growing Rose, and a 

 very free bloomer; foliage quite healthy. Cut when in bud. $1.50 each. 



•PRESIDENT CHERIOUX. (Illustrated above.) Prawn-red, with coral-red 

 center and yellow shadings at the base; immense, full, globular, with long 

 stems and vigorous bronzy foliage. A free bloomer. $3 each. 



• STAR ROSE growers! ^(UQSZS : See price after each description
