MERITORIOUS RECENT INTRODUCTIONS 
AND GENERAL LIST OF BEST VARIETIES 
NEw Hypsrip-TEA ROSE, TALISMAN 
Norman Lambert. A distinct color combination that is novel. 
The outside of the petals is a deep chrome-yellow with a marginal 
color effect of brilliant orange-scarlet merging to an irregular 
zone of burnt orange, the inside salmon-orange suffused bronze, 
shading to yellow at the base. The flowers are of medium size 
and form, delightfully fragrant and free-flowering. A splendid 
bedder. $1.50 each. 
Ophelia. A variety which has made such a record for itself that 
qualifies it to be classed with the very best, a Rose that is ad- 
mired by everyone; its flowers are held erect on long stiff stems, 
are of perfect form, good size, and of a most pleasing delicate 
tint of salmon-flesh, shaded with rose, very floriferous. 
Padre. 
Patience. One of the finest Roses of very recent introduction. 
Its splendid long pointed buds are of a deep scarlet carmine 
opening to large fragrant double perfect blooms that shade 
from orange at the base of the petals to rich carmine at the 
edges. It is of strong robust habit with glossy holly-like foliage 
and extremely free flowering for a Rose of its largesize. $1.50 each. 
Pink Pearl. A dainty variety destined to become a universal 
favorite if it had nothing to recommend it but its delicious fra- 
grance. In color it is a brilliant rich cerise pink the base of the 
petals touched with gold that lights up the flower wonderfully 
particularly in the half expanded bloom. The flowers are full 
double, of perfect form. $1.00 each.

William F. Dreer. A beautiful Rose of the same parentage as 
Los Angeles, and for delicacy of coloring no other variety can 
compare. The flowers, which are similar in shape to Los 
Angeles, and like that variety, beautiful in all stages are at their 
best in the half expanded flower. These, in expanding, are of a 
soft, silvery shell pink at certain stages of development, a golden 
suffusion illuminates the entire flower.

with carmine in the bud state, and opens to a large, full, hand- 
some flower of a rich shrimp-pink, shaded yellow in the centre
