1910 DiA'GEE Guide To Rose CvLTURE 



The Bride 



There is no other white Rose more 

 satisfactory' than the Bride. When 

 planted in the open ground, the flowers 

 are sometimes found to be deHcately 

 tinted with pink, making it exceedingly 

 attractive. The buds and flowers are 

 unusually large, well formed and de- 

 liciously perfumed. It is of a strong and 

 healthy gro-^-th, and a profuse bloomer. 

 Its blooms are of the most suitable 

 fonn and quality for cut-flowers. 



Bridesmaid 



This variety is valuable for forcing 

 and does finely in the open ground ; a 

 sport from the old and popular pink 

 Tea, Catherine Mermet, but of a fine, 

 clear dark pink, much deeper and more 

 constant in color than Mermet. 



*MADAME CAMILLE. For amateurs, 

 there is no equal, as it is a strong 

 grower, producing flowers of the 

 largest size and not liable to disease. 

 The color is a pale rosy flush, shaded 

 with salmon and lavender. 



COMTESSE RIZA DU PARC. This- 

 magnificent Rose has many admirers;- 

 the color is coppery rose, -^-ith tints- 

 and shades of soft blush. 



*PRINCESS HpHENZOLLERN. This variety is a 

 strong and \'igorous grower, with foliage of beau- 

 tiful dark green color, and extra-large flowers, 

 well formed. The fragrant flowers are often 

 borne in clusters. Color bright, deep satiny red, 

 with pink center. 



LUCIOLE. Extra-large, full, double flowers of 

 delightful fragrance. Outer petals clear cheny- 

 red, center elegantly shaded with rich golden 



yellow. 



*MARIE LAMBERT, or SNOWFLAKE. Large, dou- 

 ble creamy wliite flowers are produced in 

 marvelous profusion. We consider this one of 

 the best and freest-blooming Roses, and recom- 

 mend it particularly for outdoor planting. It is 

 unusually hardy and grows verv' \'igorously. The 

 foliage is very substantial, of attractive dark 

 green color and practically free from disease. 

 An excellent variety in every respect. 



MEDEA. Large, perfectly double flowers of deep, 

 rich lemon-A-ellow color with creamy yellow cen- 

 ter. Buds and flowers are of most exquisite 

 shape and are considered by many enthusiasts as 

 the best vellow Tea Roses. 15 cts. each, 50 cts. 

 for 4, SI for 9. 



META. A superb sort of unique color — crushed 

 strawberr\' suffused with saffron; base of petals 

 coppery yellow. Long, pointed buds.

7 am very well pleased with the Cochet Roses I got from you. I have about four sets. They are blooming fine all 

 summer. They are the finest Roses I have seen, especially the White and Pink. The Baby Rambler is a marvel. It is 

 covered with jlowers all the time. I have lots of Roses, but the Cochets suit me best. Killarney is good, too. — F. S. Briggs, 

 Providence, R. I., August 27, 1909. 



You surely do oil, and more than you say. Every Rose that I bought from you last fall came in excellent condition 

 and all are growing finely. Many thanks for your gifts. Every one something worth having. — E. I. V'redexbcrgh, 

 Chino, Cal., January- 22, 1909.
