HYBRID TEA ROSES, continued 



Mad. Abel Chatenay. The 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. Very hardy. 



Madam Caroline Testout. Flowers and buds 

 large and of elegant form, of a bright satin 

 rose-color, deepening at the center to a 

 clear red. 



Mad. Eugene Marlitt. Color rich red. It 

 blooms all the time, and is exceedingly 

 hardy. 



Mad. Jules Grolez (Red Kaiserin Augusta 

 Victoria). A distinct and charming shade 

 of cherry-red; excellent for cutting. 



Mad. Pernet Ducher. See Yellow La France. 



Mad. Segond Weber. The long, pointed 

 buds are pink or salmon-flesh, and when 

 fully expanded, deepen until it rivals the 

 American Beauty. Indispensable for grow- 

 ing indoors, for bedding or planting in 

 the open ground. 



Mad. Schwaller. Blooms in large clusters; 

 large, globular flowers; fine salmon-rose; 

 finely edged violet-carmine, with delight- 

 ful fragrance.

 and double, deliciously scented. The color 

 is bright, deep shining rose.

 bearing magnificent rosy pink flowers in 

 great quantities. 



Meteor. Rich velvety crimson, very striking; 

 both buds and flowers are large, elegantly 

 formed; very double. 



Miss Kate Moulton. Light pink; very beau- 

 tiful; habit robust, with heavy foliage, 

 making it a grand Rose for outdoor cul- 

 ture. 



Mrs. A. R. Waddell. Rosy scarlet, opening 

 rosy salmon, with reverse of petals rosy 

 scarlet. 



Mrs. G. W. Kershaw. Brilliant intense pink. 

 Free-blooming; splendidly formed buds 

 and flowers. 



Mrs. David Jardine. Valuable for forcing 

 under glass; also one of the very best 

 garden bush varieties. The blooms are

 coppery red, base of petals canary-yellow.

 splendid substance, deep and double, 

 with beautifully formed buds. 



Perle von Godesberg. Rich canary-yellow, 

 with light saffron shadings. 



Prince of Bulgaria. Large, and quite full; 

 outer petals superb rosy flesh, with the 

 reflex petals of a slightly lighter tint.

 er and very free-flowering. Delicately fra- 

 grant and a splendid keeper, it is ideal for 

 cut-flower purposes. 



Rosemary. Large, shining silvery pink flow- 

 ers with immense petals, on stiff, erect 

 stems. It is absolutely double, and entirely 

 distinct from any other variety.

 thick petals, and long, pointed buds. Clear 

 magenta-red, passing to bright crimson. 



Virginia R. Coxe. For intense and dazzling 

 crimson there is no other Rose to compare

 some, moderately double, of splendid sub- 

 stance, and are produced in amazing pro- 

 fusion during the whole of the growing 

 season.

 flesh; satiny luster, resembling glossy silk;
