Tea Roses 
These are the original Everblooming Roses from which the Hybrid Teas described in 
the previous sections have descended. These Roses are suited best to the warmer parts 
of the country, and southern planters should rely on them to a large extent because of 
their continuous bloom, resistance to disease, and their great beauty of flower. In the 
North they make fine pot-plants. 
We do not recommend the planting of this particular type of Rose in the autumn north of Washington, D. C., 
although they will do well in sheltered situations in northern territory when planted in the spring as they then 
have a complete season in which to become established before the rigors of winter, and will then with slight 
winter protection produce excellent results. 
All these Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10, for field-grown plants of any one variety

China or Bengal Roses 
These are everblooming Roses of most profuse habit. Their flowers are not so large as 
the Hybrid Teas, and are different in shape. They are excellent Roses for hedging, massing, 
and edging as they are continually in bloom. 
We do not recommend the planting of this particular type of Rose in the autumn north of Washington, D. C., 
although they will do well in sheltered situations in northern territory when planted in the spring as they then 
have a complete season in which to become established before the rigors of winter, and will then with slight 
winter protection produce excellent results. 
The China or Bengal Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10 of any one variety, except where otherwise noted

The Green Rose (Rosa cbinensis vxridxflora ). This 
Rose belongs to the China class. It is one of the 
most peculiar of all Roses inasmuch as all the 
petals of the flowers are light green, very similar 
to the color of the leaves. It is not grown for the 
beauty of flowers, but for its oddity. Bushy 
grower like Polyantha Roses.
