HYBRID TEA ROSES — Continued. 



Jonkheer J. L. Mock 



A Hybrid Tea called the Giant Pink from Holland. Of distinctive 

 merit, being an extremely strong grower, one of the strongest of 

 the Hybrid Tea class, blooming as it does with the greatest freedom, 

 the buds carried on long, stiff, erect stems, of the very largest size 

 imaginable to obtain in a Rose bloom and still retain its perfect 

 formation. Very fragrant. Color, clear imperial pink on the order 

 of the La France. This Rose has produced a sensation wherever 

 grown. We offer strong plants, on their own roots. 



SOUV. DE PRESIDENT CARNOT _a wonderfully handsome Rose, 

 large, full, double, well shaped, with heavy, thick, shell-like petals; 

 buds very long and pointed — perfection in every line. The deli- 

 cate rosy blush color, shaded a trifle deeper at the center of the 

 flower, has not been approached by any later introduction. Fra- 

 grant, strong grower and free bloomer; a splendid outdoor Rose. 



QUEEN OF SPAIN _paie flesh, with darker tints in center. Has 



many points of merit. 50c each; two-year-old plants, $1.00 each. 



RED CHATENAY _One of the most popular Roses in cultivation, 



differing in color from the parent, Mad. Abel Chatenay. 

 ROSALIND ORR ENGLISH _Hvbrid Tea. Beautiful and brilliant 

 cerise-pink, resembling the famous Lawson carnation. A strong 

 grower, throwing up splendid canes, and a prolific bloomer, with 

 long, pointed, very full buds of splendid size. 



PIERRE GUILLOT _An old standard Hybrid Tea of a rich, glowing 

 carmine and most exquisitely fragrant. In bloom all summer. 



DOROTHY PAGE ROBERTS _Hvbrid Tea. Semi-double, on the 

 style of "Betty," with each petal handsomely formed and folded. 

 In color it is a handsome shade of coppery pink. 



SOUVENIR DE WOOTTON _An old-time Rose, which is so good 

 that it has retained all of its popularity. A strong, sturdy grower, 

 with enough vigor to sustain the immense number of flowers it 

 produces. Blooms large, full and regular, with leathery petals 

 and exquisite fragrance. Bright magenta-red, passing at the base 

 to violet-crimson richly shaded. 



A glorious new extra hardy Hybrid Tea Rose which originated within 

 a few miles of West Grove. Awarded Silver Medal by the American 

 Rose Society as the best bedding Rose at the Hartford, Conn., gardens 

 this past season. The flowers are a beautiful blending of shades of 

 carmine-rose, with opal and coppery reflections. It is of splendid, 

 sturdy growth, constantly in bloom, and is bound to become one of the 

 leading garden Roses. We cannot say too much in its praise. 



EDWARD MAWLEY _A Hybrid Tea Rose named in honor of Edward 

 Mawley, one of the best known of British Rosarians. The introducer 

 describes it as having the most marvelous outstanding qualities and 

 the most wonderful Rose yet introduced. They do not hesitate in 

 stating that it is the finest dark crimson Hybrid Tea Rose. It is an 

 enormous big-petaled Rose, much larger than the Melainie Soupert, a 

 Rose which it resembles in form, and the beautiful rich color of Louis 

 Van Houtte, only with a more velvety shading upon the inside of the 

 petals. This Rose has been awarded the gold medal of the National 

 Rose Society. Very free blooming, with a perfect habit of growth, 

 suitable for garden, exhibition or forcing purposes. Hardy in all 

 localities. 



Price, 20c each for all Roses on this page, except where noted; 50c 

 for any 3; larger size, 25c each, postpaid; two-year-old plants, 45c each,
