Hybrid Tea Roses. 



Tliis collection of Roses embraces the most popular of the 

 Hybrid Tea type, several of them, varieties with which every 

 lover of Roses is familiar, and all of them thoroughly tested 

 sorts which have been found most satiefactory for outdoor 

 planting. 



They combine, in a large degree, the hardiness of the 

 Hybrid Perpetual class with the free-flowering qualities of the

 protection. 



We especially recommend this collection of Roses to those 

 who wish a supply of extra choice flowers for cutting through- 

 out the summer and fall months.
