CANADIAN QUEEN 



This beautiful new sort originated in Canada, 

 and is a sport from Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan, and 

 possesses all the desirable qualities of that vari- 

 ety, surpassing it in vitality and blooming quali- 

 ties. This is one of the strongest growing Hybrid 

 Tea Roses in our list, as well as one of the freest 

 flowering. The flowers are very large, of splen- 

 did substance, very beautiful and in color light 

 pink, lighter than Bridesmaid and superior to 

 Mrs. Oliver Ames. Keeps a long while after cut- 

 ting. For amateur culture it possesses every de- 

 sirable feature, while for forcing it has proven 

 to be exceedingly valuable.
