HAD. DE WATTEVILLE. 



The Tulip Kose. 



This grand variety, sometimes called the Tulip Rose, is 

 one of the most beautiful varieties we have ever sent out, 

 and is very largely planted by those who know its beauty. 

 The color is a remarkable shade of creamy yellow, richly 

 colored with rosy blush ; the petals are large and each one 

 widely bordered with bright crimson, which gives it a very 

 striking and beautiful appearance. The flowers are large, 

 very full and highly perfumed. For planting in the open 



ground Mad. 

 d e Watteville 

 takes front 

 rank, being a 

 hardy, vigor- 

 ous grower, 

 standing the 

 sun and weath- 

 er well, a pro- 

 fuse bloomer; 

 unsurpassed for 

 cutting.
