‘Golden Gate—(TEa)—This is the 
result of a cross between the well- 
known and much admired varieties, 
Safrano and Cornelia Cook. The 
flowers are extra large, full, nicely 
formed, of excellent substance and 
fragrance. The buds are long and 
most admirably formed. The color 
is creamy white tinged with flesh. 
Petals are large and broad, and the 
flower when in a half open condi- 
tion, or when fully developed, is 
most beautiful in every respect. 
Another important qualification is 
the length of time that it continues 
in perfection—it is quite remark- 
able in this respect. The plant is 
vigorous and a profuse bloomer, 
and taken allin all we consider ita 
most promising new variety. 
‘Gustave Piganeau— (Hysrip 
RemontTant). Large, equaling PawZ 
Neyron in size; full and cupped; 
brilliant carmine lake ; buds long ; 
very free blooming. 75c. 
«« Awarded silver medal by National Rose 
Society of England. A flower which thus 
early takes such conspicuous position must be 
of much merit. Very large, rivaling Ulrich 
Brunner or Paul Neyron in this respect, but 
notwithstanding this distinctive trait, it is 
wholly free from coarseness. Rich, crimson, 
full, intense and delightful. Another point 
in its favor is the sweet fragrauce, a precious 
trait in the Rose.” Gardener's Magazine, 
Fuly 2, 1892. 
Jeannie Dickson—(Hysrw Re- 
MONTANT). Color rosy pink, entire 
margin of petals edged with silvery 
pink, base of petals having a pale 
yellow zone ; anew shade. The flowers are large, full, with a very high center which stands up prominently. 
Growth vigorous. Budded plants. 7s5c.

Lady Helen Stewart—(Hyerip Remontant). Bright crimson scarlet ; large, full and of perfect form, pro- 
duced on long s.itf stems, highly perfumed; distinct and fine. A beautiful and valuable variety. Budded and 
on own roots. 75¢. 
Madame Caroline Testout—(Hysrip TeEa)—(New). A beautiful bright, yet clear pink rose, and very much 
resembles La France, from which it undoubtedly originated. It is of more sturdy habit, however, and exceed- 
ingly floriferous, and the individual blooms are often much larger than those of La France. It maintains its 
beautiful color at all seasons ; handsome foliage ; stem stout, fragrance very delicate. soc. 
««Mme. Caroline Testout set every one agog. Shelights up better at night, than does any other rose that has ever before been intro- 
duced. She was the winner of the $50 silver cup at the New York show this year, for the best so pink roses on long stems.''—Gardening, 
Nov 15. 1892.
