Beckert's Hybrid Tea or 

 Everblooming Roses 



This is a class of recent creation, embodying the delicate shades and 

 peculiar fragrance possessed by the Tea Rose combined with the vigor and 

 more pronounced pink and crimson shades previously confined to the 

 Hybrid Perpetual class. The Hybrid Tea Roses will supersede all others 

 because of their superior constitution and free flowering qualities, almost 

 all are highly perfumed, an attribute absolutely essential to a perfect rose. 

 They are everbloomers and hardy in all but the most rigorous climates.
