SOUVENIR DE PIERRE HOTTING 



A Popular Everblooming Kose, 



C. p. STRASHEIM. 



A very valuable summer-bloom- 

 ing Tea Rose. It is distinguished 

 among the many meritorious Roses 

 we offer for its healthy, vigorous 

 habit and its great freedom of bloom. 

 The color is a very delicate shade of 

 primrose-yeUow with a tint of fawn, 

 the latter shade being quite pro- 

 nounced in the center of the flowers. 

 As the flower ages the color lightens 

 toward the ends of the petals to a 

 light sulphur-3'ellow, almost white, 

 making a charming contrast with the 

 darker portions of the flowers, giving 

 a very finished and unique appear- 

 ance to it. Like all of the ever- 

 blooming monthly Roses, it is at 

 its best during the cool days of 

 spring and fall. {See cut.)

 grower, very free bloomer, splendid 

 foliage, and long, straight stems 

 holding the flowers erect. The fra- 

 grance is deliciously sweet. It is

 few. The color is in itself a recommendation; a clear, fresh, bright
