Famous Cochet Roses 



Absolutely without question the best Roses, 

 from every standpoint, in the world. Grand 

 growers and practically hardy everywhere, 

 beautifully formed flowers, splendid color, ever- 

 blooming, they are simply the best; they have 

 no weak spots. Our stock has the reputation 

 of being the best in this country. 

 Pink Maman Cochet. The big, elongated buds and 

 full-blown, double flowers are exquisitely charm- 

 ing, while the fragrance is rich and delicious. The 

 color is fleshy pink. 

 White Maman Cochet. Identical with its parent, 

 Maman Cochet, except in color of flower, which 

 is snowy white, sometimes tinged with the faint- 

 est suggestion of pale blush. It has the .same free- 

 dom of bloom and magnificent form of buds and 

 flowers. 

 Red Maman Cochet (Helen Gould). The most satis- 

 factory Rose of its color for general planting ever 

 introduced. Beautiful, long, pointed buds, and 

 immense, full, perfectly double flowers. Color 

 warm, rosy pink. Exceedingly free-blooming and 

 vigorous, producing its beautiful flowers in great 

 profusion on long, strong shoots. 

 Yellow Maman Cochet. Identical in every way with 

 Pink and White Cochet, excepting color of flow- 

 ers, which is deep sulphur-yellow. Strong, stiff 

 stems, healthy foliage, and vigorous grower.
