Hybrid=Tea Roses of Recent Introduction-^/ 



Mrs. Wakefield Christie-Miller (McGredy, 1909 1. Soft 

 pearly-blush shaded salmon; the outside of the petals is clear 

 vermilion-rose, a marvellous color combination; the flowers

 crimson-carmine, deepening to intense crimson, back of petals 

 satiny crimson, flowers large, full, of imbricated form, 

 deliriously perfumed. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Mrs. Charles Custis Harrison (Dickson & Sons, 1910). 

 A Rose of great beauty. The flowers are large, full, of 

 great substance, globular in form, very highly perfumed, and 

 produced on long, rigid stems. In color it is a deep crimson- 

 pink on the front of the petals, crayoned deep crimson-carmine 

 on the reverse side, a warm color that lights when held in 

 varied positions of light. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Mrs. Arthur Munt (Dickson & Sons, 1909). A profuse and 

 continuous bloomer, with large, full, perfectly formed flowers, 

 with high, pointed centre. The color is suffused peach on 

 deep cream, which becomes creamy-ivory as the flower 

 develops; delicately tea-scented. 75 cts. each; $7.50 per doz. 



Mrs. Arthur Robert Waddell (Pernet Ducher, 1908). An 

 attractively colored variety that meets with universal favor, a 

 delicate, soft, rosy-salmon, suffused with a golden sheen; 

 flowers of medium size, especially handsome in half expanded 

 form; a free flowering garden variety that should be in every 

 collection. 75 cts. each; $7.50 per doz. 



Mrs. Leonard Petrie (Dickson & Sons, 1910). Probably 

 the most beautiful yellow of recent introduction. The flowers 

 are large, full and delightfully fragrant; in color a honey- 

 yellow, touched with claret on the reverse of the petals, 

 becoming pale sulphur-yellow. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Mrs. Cornwallis West (Dickson & Sons, 1911). A mag- 

 nificent and distinct Rose of huge size. The blooms are 

 very full and always open well; the petals are very smooth, 

 shell-shaped, leathery and entrancingly l>eautiful. The purity 

 of the transparent delicate pink — which is between a shell and 

 a rose-pink on the purest white — gives it an attraction all its 

 own that is difficult to convey. Awarded the Gold Medal of 

 the National Rose Society. $1.25 each; $12.00 per doz.

 vigorous habit of a brilliant carmine shaded pink, coppery- 

 red and yellow; a fine cut flower. 75 cts. each; $7.50 per 

 doz. 



Robert Huey (Dickson & Sons, 1911). Messrs. Dicksons 

 submitted a number of their promising seedlings for trial to 

 Dr. Robert Huey, one of Philadelphia's most enthusiastic and 

 best-posted amateur Rose growers, from which he selected this 

 variety to name after his son. The description following has 

 been supplied by Dr. Huey: "A strong, vigorous grower, 

 giving extra fine steins for cutting; color bright carmine shaded 

 deeper on the outer petals; flowers large, full and of good 

 substance; buds pointed; the largest and finest of the red- 

 colored Hybrid-Teas; should have a rich, deep soil and 

 good feeding." $1.25 each.

 a pleasing sulphur-yellow color very freely; the plant is of 

 vigorous habit. 75 cts. each; $7.50 per doz. 



The Lyon (Pernet Ducher, 1907). Neither words or artist's 

 brush can do justice to the wonderful coloring of this beautiful 

 Rose; it must be seen to be appreciated. The buds are long, 

 tipped coral-red and chrome-yellow at the base. The flowers 

 when expanded are large and full, with broad petals of a 

 superb color, being a coral-red or salmon-pink, shaded with 

 chrome-yellow in the centre, toning to a shrimp-pink at the
