brilliant rose flowers; the edges of the petals are wavy, giving 

 it a peculiarly graceful form.

 antha variety with dainty double little flowers of perfect form, 

 produced in many flowered graceful sprays; color a soft rosy- 

 pink on a rich creamy-white ground. 



Echo. A new soft tender pink variety on the style of Baby 

 Tausendschoen, but of much greater vigor, producing on well- 

 established plants trusses of flowers over 12 inches in diameter. 



Erna Teschendorf f. A "sport" from the Crimson Baby 

 Rambler, as bright as Gruss an Teplitz, the well-known 

 Hybrid-Tea, which has been well described as the "Reddest 

 of all red Roses." 



George Elger. Coppery golden-yellow before fully expanded, 

 opening up a pale-yellow, particularly handsome in the bud 

 state, a splendid companion to Cecile Brunner, the Fairy or 

 Sweetheart Rose.

 to the popular climbing Tausendschoen, a soft, tender shade of 

 pink; flowers 1^ to 2 inches in diameter produced throughout

 stems with erect panicles of 25 to 50 most perfectly formed 

 flowers of a bright vermilion-red shaded orange-red, passing 

 as they mature to a lively bright rose color.
