Hybrid Tea — All the color tones of 

 Ophelia are intensified, making it a 

 harmony of bright pink, apricot and 

 gold. Ophelia ranks at the top in pop- 

 ularity and Madame Butterfly will sur- 

 pass it. It averages more petals to 

 the bloom; it produces more bloom to 

 the plant because it makes more 

 branches, everyone carrying a bud. 

 The tight buds are a lovely shade of 

 Indian oak, yellow at the base; the 

 opening flowers are perfect in form 

 and texture, clear and brilliant in color 

 and of delicious fragrance.

NEW ROSES— Continued. 



Mrs, E, T, Stotesbury 



One of the many new varieties of Roses recently pro- 

 duced in this country that will soon become a popular 

 favorite is our prediction for this Glorious Hybrid Tea. 

 cross between My Maryland, Jos. Hill and Milady. It 

 has the desirable features of all and 

 apparently none of the faults, re- 

 taining the magnificent bud of My 

 Maryland and the double flower 

 when fully opened of Milady, mak- 

 ing it the most perfect Rose we have 

 ever seen. In its color lies one of 

 its principal charms, being a soft 

 silvery flesh pink, deepening tow^ards 

 the center to very deep pink, outer 

 edges of the petals tinted silvery 

 rose, making a combination found 

 in so few. We have tried it thor- 

 oughly in the open ground, where it 

 stands the winter without any pro- 

 tection and blooms continuously 

 from early June until frost. Strong 

 grow^er, producing the blooms on 

 long, stiff stems, w^ell above the foli- 

 age. Free from disease and insect 

 pests. We offered it for the first time last sea- 

 son, and the more we see of it the better impressed 

 we are with it. An excellent variety for cutting. 

 No condition of weather seems to affect it in any 

 way.
