Prince of Bulgaria. 



Prince of Bulgaria 



Not the least of its charms is the large, bright green 

 foliage, and the buds are simply grand. The flowers 

 are large and quite full ; outer petals superb rosy flesh, 

 with the index petals of a slightly lighter tint. 



Etoile de France. One of the best and sweetest hardy 

 Hybrid Tea Roses of its color. The strong, upright 

 bushes have beautiful bronze-green foliage which is 

 not subject to insect attacks. The bushes are bloom- 

 ing constantly, producing large, massive, deep, full, 

 cup-formed flowers on magnificent, long, stiff stems. 

 They are of truly glorious form and delightful fra- 

 grance, while the color is exquisite — a clear red or 

 velvety crimson. 



Mad. Abel Chatenay. Best of its color — rosy carmine, 

 with darker shade. It does remarkably well in the 

 open ground, has wonderfully beautiful flowers, which 

 are full, deep and double. We have a large stock of 

 superior quality, and urgently recommend all our 

 customers to include Mad. Chatenay in their Rose 

 orders for this Spring. 



Virginia R. Coxe. For intense and dazzling color there 

 is no other Rose to compare with this splendid kind. 

 The flowers are large and handsome, moderately 

 double, of splendid substance, and are produced in 

 amazing profusion during the whole of the growing 

 season ; in fact, it is always in bloom. The color ij 

 fiery crimson, shaded with a dark velvety sheen, a 

 combination found in no other Rose. 



Triumph de Pernet Pere. A French Rose, originated by 

 Jean Pernet, of France. Flowers large, with broad, 

 thick petals and long, pointed buds. Delicious Tea 

 fragrance. Clear magenta-red, passing to bright 

 crimson. 



Wellesley. A most magnificent garden Rose of a beau- 

 tiful shade of pink ; vigorous, healthy grower ; re- 

 markably free-flowering, with fine keeping qualities ; 

 most valuable Rose for garden, as it is particularly 

 adapted for outdoor culture. Blooms produced on 

 long, stiff stems. 



HYBRID TEA ROSES— Continued. 



Mad. Jules Grolez 



This magnificent Rose is exceedingly free 

 blooming, with very large, finely foi'med flow- 

 ers. The color is a distinct and charming 

 shade of cherry-red. The fine form and at- 

 tractive shape of the flowers makes them ex- 

 cellent for cutting. It is a remarkably strong- 

 growing variety, as hardy as the Hybrid Per- 

 petuals ; free blooming, and in every way a 

 splendid garden Rose. 



Mme. Melanie Soupert. The flowers are bright 

 golden-yellow suffused with faint tinges of 

 pink, with a handsome and distinct form, 

 making a Rose of great beauty. It is a 

 strong, vigorous grower, very hardy, and 

 forms a handsome bush in the garden. 



Mad. Schwaller. Blooms in large clusters ; 

 large, globular flowers ; fine salmon-rose ; 

 finely edged violet-carmine. 



Meteor. Very few dark Roses compare with 

 this in richness and depth of color, which is 

 a rich, velvety crimson, shading very dark 

 in the depths of the petals. The buds and 

 flowers ai'e remarkably large and of elegant 

 form, full and double. As a garden Rose it 

 has few equals, being particularly valuable 

 for bedding on account of its sturdy growth 

 and handsome foliage. It is also valuable 

 for growing indoors in pots or in the conser- 

 vatory, and is constantly in bloom. 



Mrs. Potter Palmer. Clear, shining pink ; 

 much like La France. The flowers are large, 

 full and double. 



President Roosevelt. Blooms are finely formed, 

 with petals of wonderful substance ; color, 

 bright, lively pink, which remains true to the last. 

 The bloom of this Rose is similar to a cherry blos- 

 som, and it excels most of the pink kinds in its free- 

 dom of blooming when planted in the open ground. 



Mary, Countess of Ilchester 



A strong, vigoi-ous Hybrid Tea. Color warm crimson- 

 carmine, a color almost indescribable. Flowers pro- 

 duced on long, upright stems, of immense size, with 

 large, smooth, circular petals. The foliage is attractive 

 and handsome, a deep green. Very highly scented. 



Radiance. A glorious new extra hardy Hybrid Tea Rose 

 which originated within a few miles of West Grove. 

 The flowers are a beautiful blending of shades of 

 carmine-rose, with opal and coppery reflections. It is 

 of splendid, sturdy growth, constantly in bloom, and 

 is bound to become one of the leading garden Roses. 

 We cannot say too much in its praise. Awarded a 

 Silver Medal by the American Rose Society at Hart- 

 ford, Conn., Trial Gardens as the best bedding Rose. 



William H. Taft. This fine Hybrid Tea Rose origin- 

 ated in the vicinity of Cincinnati. Salmon-pink, with 

 fine fragrance. Bush is strong and vigorous in 

 growth and very profuse in bloom. . 



Richmond. The most gorgeous Rose we have ever seen 

 — no other variety can compare with it. In form and 

 fragrance of flower is simply superb. Wonderful'y 

 free blooming, its immense, fragrant, scarlet-crimson 

 flowers are borne on long, stiff stems, making it a 

 rival of American Beauty, and even more dazzling in 

 appearance. In the garden its flowers are as fine as 

 those found in the greenhouse. Perfectly hardy. 



Magnafrano. The flowers are very large, full, deep and 

 double, and of delightful fragrance. The color of this 

 magnificent Rose is bright, shining rose, with rich 

 shadings of deeper tones.
