SELECT-ROSES 
GENERAL LIST OF DREER’S SELECT 
HYBRID-TEA ROSES 
Under this heading we offer on this and the three pages following the World’s best Hybrid-Tea varieties, all of them sorts 
which we have had the pleasure of thoroughly testing, and which we fully endorse aie recommend to the large and small planter, which 
together with the Dreer Dozen and the newer sorts offered on pages 120 to 122, and 127 to 129, forms not the longest list of varie- 
ties, but what is undoubtedly the finest collection of Hybrid-Tea Roses ever offered to the Rose loving American public.

large globular flowers with curved petals; its growth is vigorous;
