TEA ROSES — Continued 
Helen Good. This is the only true Cochct 
Rose known e.xcept the old, well-known Pink 
and White Cochets. The color is a delicate 
yellow, suffused with pink, each petal edged 
deeper, very chaste and beautiful. The color, 
with its immense size and exquisite form, 
makes it one of the greatest Tea Roses. 
Mrs. B. R. Cant. Red. A most beauti- 
ful and worthy variety, somewhat resembling 
the famous Papa Gontier. The plant is a 
very free grower and bloomer ; the flowers 
are large, full and double ; dark carmine 
shaded and flushed with lighter rose. 
Helen Gould. Red. One of the most 
beautiful and satisfactory Roses for general 
planting ever introduced in America. The 
flowers are full and perfectly double, the 
laids beautifully made, the color of a ripe 
red watermelon. It is as hardy as La 
France. 
Safrano. Yellow. A variety of great 
value, particularly for outdoor planting. It 
grows vigorously and has the vitality neces- 
sary to produce a continuous crop of flowers 
from early summer until late in autumn ; 
quite hardy. The color is h-right apricot- 
yellow, changing to orange and fawn, some- 
times tinted w'ith rose. Very fragrant. 
Coquette de Lyon. Yellow. One of the 
best garden Roses. It is unquestionably one 
of the finest canary-yellow Tea Roses in 
cultivation for open-ground culture. 
Etoile de Lyon (star of Lyon). Yellow. 
This magnificent Tea Rose is a rich golden 
yellow; a strong, healthy and vigorous 
grower ; immense bloomer, hearing flowers 
and buds early and late. The flowers are 
very deep, rich and full, of excellent sub- 
stance, and very sweet. 
Freiherr von Marschall. Red. The flow- 
ers are large, beautifully shaped, double and 
full, borne in wonderful profusion all 
through the growing season. It is a bright 
red. one of the brightest red Tea Roses in 
existence. Price, mailing size, 3-inch pots, 
20 cts. ; heavy 2-ycar plants, 50 cts. 
Golden Gate. A most magnificent Rose 
W’ith large, full, finely formed flowers ; buds 
long and beautiful. Color rich creamy 
white, exquisitely tinged with golden yel- 
low and clear .rose, making a flower of in- 
describable beauty. Plants robust and 
hardy. 
Madame de Vatry. Red. Big, clean buds 
of great beauty ; fine flowers ; .rich crimson- 
I scarlet.

Dear Sir, — I am sending you a few of my friends* 
names and addresses to see if I can get you some 
more customers, because I’ve always had such 
prompt attention and such good satisfaction with 
all the plants that I’ve ever had from you. 
Yours truly,

STANDARD OR TREE ROSES 
This class includes Roses of many of the 
regular varieties grafted upon upright stems 
in tree form. For planting along walks or 
drives for use among other and lower-grow- 
ing Roses, and as a background for low 
shrubs, herbaceous perennials, etc., these 
Tree Roses are certainly very desirable, and 
I recommend the following varieties highly : 
Price, $1.50 each ; $15 per dozen.
