TEA ROSES — Continued 
Helen Good. This is the only true Cochet 
Rose known except 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 beautiful 
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 buds 
beautifully made, the color of a ripe red water- 
melon. It is as hardy as La France. 
Safrano. Yellow. A variety of great 
value, particularly for out-door planting. It 
grows vigorously, and has the vitality necessary 
to produce a continuous crop of flowers from 
early summer until late in autumn; quite 
hardy. The color is bright apricot-ycllow, 
changing to orange and fawn, sometimes 
tinted with 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 culti- 
vation for open-ground culture. 
Etoile de Lyon (Star of Lyon). Yellow. 
This magnificent Tea Rose is a rich golden yel- 
low; a strong, healthy and vigorous grower, 
immense bloomer, bearing flowers and buds 
early and late. The flowers are very deep, rich 
and full, of excellent substance, and very 
sweet. 
Freiherr von Marschall. Red. The 
flowers 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 
15 cts. ; heavy 2-year plants, 30 cts. 
Golden Gate. A most magnificent Rose 
with large, full, finely formed flowers; buds 
long and beautiful. Color rich creamy white, 
exquisitely tinged with golden yellow and 
clear rose, making a flower of indescribable 
beauty. Plants robust and hardy. 
Madame de Vatry. Red. Big, clean buds 
of great beauty; fine flowers; rich crimson- 
scarlct.

Dear Sir: 
I am sending you an order today for plants for three 
of my friends, they saw my plants and were so much 
pleased that they wanted me to order for them, you may 
use my name with any recommendation you wish as 
there is nothing too good to say about the merits of 
Fairfax plants. 
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 growing 
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.
