HARDY EVERBLOOMING TEA ROSES— Continued 



Mareottin 



Safrano 



Valued very highly for its beautiful buds and 

 handsome flowers. The color is a bright apricot- 

 yellow, passing to orange and fawn, sometimes 

 tinted with rose. A splendid old-time Rose that has 

 never been replaced by any newcomer of its class 

 or color. It is a variety especially adapted to out- 

 door planting; vigorous and healthy; blooms all 

 summer. 



MADAME LAMBARD. Color a magnificent shade 

 of rosy bronze, changing to salmon and fawn, 

 tinted with carmine. 

 MAD. DE WATTEVILLE. The Tulip Rose. The 

 color is a magnificent shade of creamy yellow, 

 richly colored with rosy blush; the large petals 

 are bordered with bright crimson, giving it a 

 very striking and beautiful appearance. 

 MADAME ELIE LAMBERT. Color a rich creamy 

 white, faintly tinted with pale golden yellow, and 

 is exquisitely bordered and tinted with soft rosy 

 flesh; very beautiful and sweet. 

 MARION DINGEE. The darkest, richest colored 

 Tea Rose known. Large finely formed flowers 

 are borne in constant profusion throughout the 

 season. Color deep, brilliant crimson. 



Price, 15c. each for all Roses on this page, 50c. 

 for any 4j larger size, 20c. each, 3 for 50c., post- 

 paid; two-year-old plants, 35c. each, by express. 



Madame Margottin 



This large and perfectly double Rose is consid- 

 ered a great favorite. The color of the flowers, 

 which are very fragrant, is dark citron-yellow, with 

 apricot shadings and red center; a strong grower 

 and profuse bloomer. 



MLLE. CECIL BERTHOD. We think of this variety 

 as an excellent Rose of great merit. It is magnifi- 

 cent both in bud and flower, which is a deep 

 golden yellow; the foliage is bright green and 

 glossy. 

 MARIE LAMBERT, or SNOWFLAKE. Large, double, 

 creamy white flowers are produced in marvelous 

 profusion. We consider this one of the best 

 and freest-blooming Roses, and recommend it 

 particularly for outdoor planting. It is unusually 

 hardy and grows very vigorously. The foliage 

 is very substantial, of attractive dark-green color 

 and practically free from disease. An excellent 

 variety in every respect. 

 MEDEA. Large, perfectly double flowers of deep, 

 rich lemon-yellow color with creamy yellow 

 center. Buds and flowers are of most exquisite 

 shape and are considered by many enthusiasts as 

 the best yellow Tea Roses. 

 META. A superb sort of unique color — crushed 

 strawberry suflFused with saffron; base of petals 

 coppery yellow. Long, pointed buds. 

 MAD. AGATHA NABONNAND. This splendid Rose, 

 in color, is like the delicate hues seen in the 

 inside of the fairest deep-sea shells; rosy flesh, 

 bathed in golden amber. The buds are immense, 

 and have the shape of an egg, with broad, shell- 

 like petals, large and very fragrant flowers.
