*F. R. Patzer 



A Rose of striking and pleasing appearance, owing 

 to the delicate blending of color, which is a creamy- 

 buff, with the reverse of petals a delicate warm pink, 

 and as they expand the color becomes a light orange 

 pink, which produces a most charming combination. 

 Strong, vigorous grower. Produces numerous branch- 

 es, each one crowned with magnificent bud and bloom, 

 on long, stiff stems, well above the foliage. 

 HELENA CAMBLER. Of unusual beauty, with large, 

 double, beautifully formed flowers. The colors are 

 varying, ranging from salmon-rose to coppery-rose, 

 very often a handsome saffron hue. 

 *WELLESLEY. A most magnificent garden Rose of a 

 beautiful shade of pink, vigorous, healthy growers; 

 remarkably free-flowering, particularly adapted for 

 outdoor culture. 

 METEOR. Very few dark Roses compare with this in 

 richness and depth in color, which is a rich velvety 

 crimson, shading very dark in the depths of the petals. 

 CHRISSIE MACKELLAR. Of a very beautiful shade 

 of crimson and carmine, with vernations of rich deep 

 ochre. 

 RED LETTER DAY. A velvety brilliant glowing 

 scarlet crimson bud opening into a cactus-like flower 

 which retains its color, because the reflex of the 

 petals is satiny crimson scarlet.
