17 



Hybrid Tea Roses, 25 Varieties {Continued). 



Docteur Reymont. — This is a very handsome Rose, 

 noted for being a hardy ever- bloomer, which is a very 

 desirable class that we do not have many of; produces 

 extra-large, very beautiful flowers, somewhat flat in form, 

 but very full and regular, almost perfect shape; color 

 bright shining vermilion red; remarkably brilliant and 

 striking ; reverse of petals elegantly clouded with rich 

 violet crimson ; exceedingly sweet. Excellent for open- 

 ground planting ; reasonably hardy, but requires covering 

 in cold localities. 20 cts. each. 



Docteur Pasteur.— Extra-large pointed buds, with 

 fine, large globular flowers; color brilliant carmine rose, 

 shading to bronze red; very handsome. 20 cts. each. 



Gustave Reg-is. — The Climbing Hybrid Teas are 

 comparatively a new class of Roses not yet extensively dis- 

 seminated, but worthy of trial in favorable situations. 

 This one is pale canary yellow — sometimes almost pure 

 white — with just a tinge of gold; the flowers are cup- 

 shaped and semi-double, almost every one showing the 

 centre very distinctly when fully open. It is richly scented 

 and very floriferous, and as the plant is evidently a strong 

 healthy grower, it will doubtless makea charming climber 

 where the Winters are not too severe. 20 cts. each. 



Henri Brichard. — The flowers are borne in great pro- 

 fusion ; they are of fine, regular form, with nerrow imbri- 

 cated petals; very full and delightfully tea scented; color
