Hybrid Tea Roses. 



The Hybrid Tea Roses are recommended for their constant bloom, brilliant colors and exquisite fragrance. 

 Some varieties, such as La France, Duchess of Albany, Meteor, Pierre Guillot, Souvenir de Wootton, etc., 

 are among our best and most satisfactory Roses for general planting indoors, and succeed well in favorable 

 situations in open ground, but are not very hardy, requiring slight protection during Winter months. 



Pierre Guillot. — One of the most valuable of all Hybrid 

 Teas, and remarkable for its very brilliant color, bright daz- 

 zling crimson, passing to vivid carmine red; flowers large, 

 very double and full, highly scented ; profuse bloomer ; a good 

 healthy grower and moderately hardy. 25 cts. each. 



Souvenir de Wootton. — This is a remarkably brilliant 

 and striking ever-blooming Rose ; bright magenta red, pass- 

 ing at base to fine violet crimson, richly shaded ; flowers are 

 large, full and regular, with thick leathery petals and delicious 

 tea scent; makes beautiful buds, and is recommended both 

 for open ground and conservatory ; a good grower and im- 

 mense bloomer. 25 cts. each. 



Triumph d' Angers. — Bright, fiery red, changing to 

 darkest velvety crimson, tinged with purple ; large, full flow- 

 ers, very double and fragrant ; quite hardy. 15 cts. each. 



Triomphe de Pernet Pere. — Originated and sent out 

 by Jean Pernet, one of the most celebrated Rose growers of 

 France, who has already given us some very beautiful Roses, 

 but considers this the triumph of his life. The flowers are 

 extra large, having broad thick petals and long tapering buds, 

 with delicious tea fragrance; color fine clear magenta red, 

 sometimes passing to bright crimson, very striking and beau- 

 tiful, and of such good substance that the flowers retain their 

 beauty for a long time; very brilliant and handsome (see 

 cut). 25 cts. each. 



William Francis Bennett. — This beautiful Rose holds 

 a secure position of its own ; no other variety can take its 

 place ; it is noted for its magnificent buds and wonderful 

 color, which is intense dazzling crimson ; one of the brightest 

 and most brilliant colored Roses ever grown ; it is particularly 

 valuable for forcing and greenhouse culture, and does fairly 

 well in favorable situations in open ground ; reasonably hardy, 

 but requires careful protection in Winter. 40 cts. each ; $3.50 

 per doz. 



SPECIAL OFFER.-The entire set of Hy- 

 brid Tea Roses, 10 varieties in all, for $2. 



TRIOMPHE DE PERNET PERE. 



Augustine Guinoisseau. — The best recommendation 

 we can give this magnificent new Rose is that it is a pure 

 white La France, having just a breath of rose-tinted blush, 

 delicately clouding the depths of its broad petals; the buds 

 and flowers are extra large, very full and finely formed, and 

 delightfully perfumed ; it blooms all through the season, and 

 is a Rose that every one would like to have. 25 cts. each. 



Augustine Halem.— Extra-large and handsome ; full, 

 well-developed buds and flowers, having good, thick, wax-like 

 petals of excellent substance ; color clear bright rosy red, verg- 

 ing to deep rich crimson ; very beautiful; nice, erect habit of 

 growth ; clean and healthy, with good, substantial foliage ; 

 the color is remarkably clear and handsome ; a constant and 

 profuse bloomer; very fragrant (see cut). 40 cts. each. 



Duchess of Albany (Red La France). — One of the 

 finest Hybrid Teas in cultivation ; its habit resembles that of 

 La France ; hence the appellation, Red La France, is decidedly 

 appropriate. It is a continuous and copious bloomer, often 

 being covered with buds and blooms throughout the season. 

 The flowers are extra-large, of a brilliant rose-pink and 

 delightfully scented. 20 cts. each ; 3 for 50 cts.; 6 for $1. 



La France. — This old and universally popular variety is 

 so well known and so highly esteemed that a description is 

 almost superfluous. It is one of the most superb and prolific 

 Roses known; the flowers are exceedingly sweet and handsome 

 — being produced in great profusion throughout the season. 

 The color is a lovely shade of peach blossom with a deliciously 

 tea-scented fragrance. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts.; 8 for $1. 



Meteor. — The color is rich velvety crimson, exceedingly 

 bright and striking, and both buds and flowers are large and 

 elegantly formed, fully double, and borne on nice long stems, 

 which renders it especially attractive, as well as nice for cut- 

 ting. It is a vigorous and healthy grower and a quick and 

 constant bloomer ; quite fragrant ; a really excellent Rose in 

 every way, and never fails to please. 20 cts. each.
