distinction between varieties is equally marked, and for bouquets and cut flowers they greatly ex- 

 cel all other classes. Like other tender Roses their flowers improve in quality as the season ad- 

 vances, and reach perfection in Autumn. In judging the merits of a Tea Rose we do not alwajs- 

 consider fullness of flowers a requisite. A Hybrid Perpetual is nothing if not at least moderately 

 full, but some of our most valued Teas have but very few petals, and are comparatively single.. 

 Such are Bon Silene, Isabella Sprunt, Safrano, etc. All these have exquisitely formed buds, and 

 are therefore prized as invaluable. The Teas are more tender than any of the other classes, and 

 need a little more care in their protection. We have rejected all varieties that arti of feeble growth 

 (excepting Niplietos) and unhealthy habit, retaining only such as combine beauty of flower with 

 good constitution. 



Aiig'ele Jacquier, free. {Ouillot, 1879.) Pale rose, sometimes flesh; the 

 base of petals tinged with coppery yellow; very sweet; free flowering. A lovely 

 Tea, bearing some resemblance both to Catharine Mermet and Rubens. Highly com- 

 mended. 50 cents. 



Annie Cook, y^^'. {Cook,' 1888.) An American seedling from Bon Silene; 

 delicate shade of pink, changing to white under glass in winter; vigorous and free 

 blooming. This variety has several good qualities, but the shape of the bud detracts 

 from its value for forcing purposes. 50 cents. 



BON SILENE OR SILENE,/ree. {Hardy, 1839.) Rosy carmine, shaded 

 with salmon; fragrant and very free flowering. Valuable for the buds. 50 cents.

 one of the hardiest. 50 cents.
