New Hybrid-Tea Rose, Mrs. J. D. Eisele 



Protected Under United States Plant Patent Number 67 

 Howard & Smith's Latest and Best Introduction 



A Rose of outstanding merit that every Rose lover will appreciate, buds and flowers perfect in every 

 stage of development, perfect habit of growth; free continuous habit of bloom, hardiness, and above all pos- 

 sessing the sweet fruity fragrance of the noted old Tea Roses of fifty years ago. 



The buds, the expanding flowers as well as the fully developed blooms of this Rose are absolutely per- 

 fect in every stage of development. This is due to the unfurling petals of the long pointed buds which are 

 arranged in spiral form, reflexing as they unfold giving the fully developed flower, which is from five to six 

 inches in diameter, a most perfect camellia-like formation. 



Aside from its beautiful shape it is a Rose of exceptional keeping qualities, the cut blooms lasting 

 fully a week in good condition. 



Color: In color it is a luscious shade of cherry-rose overlaid with a scarlet glow, this brilliancy being 

 particularly intense and lustrous under artificial light. An unusual feature in the coloring in the open flower 

 and which adds grace and distinction is that the tip of each of the many gracefully placed petals has just 

 the faintest silvery thin wire-like lacing. 



Fragrance: "We have in this Rose the most delightful fragrance (an important factor that is lacking 

 in many other good varieties), to such an extent that only a few flowers in a vase will serve to permeate the 

 entire atmosphere of the room -with their sweet fruity odor, resembling that of the noted old Tea Roses of 

 fifty years ago. 



Growth strong, vigorous, erect, of branching habit, very free and a continuous bloomer. 



Awarded Gold Medals at the Atlantic City Flower and Garden Pageant, September, 1932, at the Inter- 

 national Flower Show, New York City, March, 1933, and at the Philadelphia Flower Show, March, 1933.
