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 en 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. 



gOUV. DE PRESIDENT CARNOT _a wonderfully handsome Rose, 

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

 buds very lone 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 _OnR of the most popular Roses in cultivation, 



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

 ROSALIND ORR ENGLISH _HvhriH 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. 



' Glorious Pink Rose. A delicious creamy white Hybrid Tea, 



passing to tender rose, which deepens to a warm, fresh pink 

 on the center petals. The flowers are of handsome cup-shape 

 and borne on long stems. The bush is a strong, thrifty grower 

 and in every respect it is an ideal garden Rose — one which is 

 bound to become popular. 



DOROTHY PAGE ROBERTS _Hvhrid 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. 

 LENA — 7he flowers are frequently produced in sprays of from 

 seven to nine large, perfect blooms of semi-double form, of 

 glowing apricot color, the petals assuming a primrose-yellow 

 as the flower gets older; the bud is long and perfectly 

 formed. The bush is strong and lusty in growth and bears 

 its handsome flowers in great profusion. 

 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. 

 BONA AVELLSHOTT — Color, rosy vermilion, orange-red; very 



sweet. Flowers large and double.
