HYBRID TEA ROSES-Continued 



Virginia R. Coxe 



or Grus an Teplitz 



First introduced in America by The Dingee & 

 Conard Company, and one of the most popular of 

 the famous Dingee Roses. 



For intense and dazzling color there is no other 

 Rose to compare with this splendid kind. The 

 flowers are large and handsome, moderately double, 

 of splendid substance, and are produced in amaz- 

 ing profusion during the whole of the growing 

 season; in fact, it is always in bloom. The color 

 is fiery crimson, shaded with a dark velvety sheen, 

 a combination found in no other Rose. 



The fragrance of Virginia R. Coxe Rose is unex- 

 celled by that of any other variety under cultiva- 

 tion. It is a strong and sturdy grower, often 

 attaining a height of four or five feet, is perfectly 

 hardy in all sections and is one of the finest of 

 many splendid Roses that have come to us from 

 Europe. 15c. each, 4 for 50c.; larger size, 20c. 

 each; 6 for $1.00; strong two-year-old plants, 

 40c. each.
