NEW 
AMERICAN SEEDLING ROSE 
(HYBRID TEA). 
TVTv^ W- O. TVTllt.nf^V Undoubtedly by far the 
mis ' ' ^* ™ J» finest variety ever raised 
in America, and one of the greatest acquisitions ever introduced. 
Color, beautiful shade of clear, deep pink, with a fragrance distinct 
from any other known variety— a combination of Lemon Verbena, 
Heliotrope, and the old favorite rose " Centifolia." The flowers are 
large, full, and elongated, many of them can be cut with stems two 
feet long, with extra fine handsome foliage. It is also an exceedingly 
free flowering variety, of strong, vigorous growth, and every shoot 
producing a flower. It will produce one-third more flowers than 
"Bonsaline" from the same space. It won the Mrs. Whitney Cup, 
in New York, in 1892 ; a Silver Medal at the Philadelphia Show, 
Spring of 1 893 ; a Silver Medal at the New York Show, Fall of 1893 ; 
and a Gold Medal and Diploma at the World's Fair, Chicago, for 
American seedling, where it was blooming all summer in the New 
York Florists' 1 Club Exhibit. Good strong plants ready for distri- 
bution April 1, 1894. Price, $1.00 each ; $9.00 per dozen.

very freely, intermediate in size, between "Bonsaline" and"Mme.

April 1st. Price, 60c. each ; $6.00 per dozen.
