 If yon want five of the. finest Roses listed in this book, which will produce hundreds 

 of superb flowers throughout the growing season, and producing the kind of flowers one 

 never tires of, order this Cochet set. No matter where you live, they wall give you per- 

 fect satisfaction. The Cochet Roses are perfectly hardy in every part of the country, 

 even where the winters are most severe, with slight protection. In the more temperate 

 sections and in the South they thrive vigorously and bloom most lavishly all summer 

 long, growing into great, strong, lusty bushes, which increase in beauty each year. 



*PINK MAMAN COCHET — The Queen of all Pink 

 Garden Roses. The buds are large, full and 

 firm elegantly pointed, showing depth and rich- 

 ness as they expand. The superb flowers open 

 perfectly double, are extra large and of splendid 

 substance. Hardy in every section of the coun- 

 try; clear, rich pink, changing to silvery rose. 



*RED MAMAN COCHET (Helen Gould)— A Rose 

 that will grow and give satisfaction in almost 

 any soil or situation. It produces flowers in 

 amazing profusion, on long, strong shoots. The 

 flowers are very full, perfectly double ; buds 

 long and pointed. Color,, warm, rosy crimson. 



*CRIMSON MAMAN COCHET (Etoile de France) 

 — A fitting companion to the other Cochet Roses 

 on account of its vigor of growth, stiffness of 

 foliage, freedom of bloom and hardiness. It 

 bears masses of full, deep-formed flowers single- 

 on long substantial stems. The color is a new 

 and clear shade of red or velvety crimson, bright- 

 ening in the center; of exquisite fragrance. 



-t-WHITE MAMAN COCHET — A most magnificent 

 snow-white Rose, with sometimes a faint tinge of 

 pale blush. It has the same freedom of bloom 

 as the Pink Cochet. the same magnificent form 

 of buds and flowers, and the same hardiness — 

 standing at the very head of all Roses as the 

 best white kind for open ground culture. Vigor- 

 ous as an oak and hardy everywhere. 



*YELLOW MAMAN COCHET— One of the best 

 hardy, everblooming yellow Roses. It is ideal 

 for open ground culture — a typical Cochet Rose. 

 with gracefully molded buds, flowers, magnifi- 

 cent when open, on stiff, strong stems. This 

 kind is identical in every way with Pink and 

 White Cochet, except in the color of the flower 

 which is deep sulphur-yellow.
