MME. GREGORIE STAECHELIN. Cl. (P. Dot, 1927.) 
This Spanish Beauty has inherited the best qualities 
of both of its parents, Frau Karl Druschki and Chateau 
de Clos Vougeot. The long pointed buds are crimson 
at first as the petals divide, then the firm outer petals 
show splashes of carmine as the flower opens, with an 
iridescent pearl-pink inside and it is richly perfumed. It 
grows 12 feet or more, the main stem cf the plant 
shoots upright and the long bloom-spurs stand out 18 
inches at right angles, with exquisite, full, fragrant 
bloom. The blooms come early in June and last over a 
long period, although it is not an everblooming variety. 
MME. JULES BOUCHE. H. T. 
(Croibier & Son, 1911.) 
While not a pure white, it being at all times sflghtly 
tinted with flesh at the center, it is to all intents white 
and without question one of the best white everbloom¬ 
ing bedding Roses. The flowers are large, quite double 
and of splendid form, both in bud as well as in the fully 
expanded flower; it is fragrant, a vigorous grower and 
very free flowering. 
MME. AMBROSE RICARDO. H. T. 
(S. McGredy & Son, 1914.) 
Very large, full blooms of pale pink and light yellow, 
of firm incurved form and some fragrance. One of the 
finest and largest of all Roses. Its enormous blooms 
improve in color and texture and keep for days after 
being cut.
