Am¬ 
docs not fade or shade off into dull and 
undesirable tints. One of the most exqui¬ 
sitely colored Roses, and exceedingly beau¬ 
tiful in the bud. In this latitude it makes 
a strong, vigorous bush, and bears an 
abundance of flowers at all seasons. One of 
the best Roses for the South. A bed of well- 
grown Safranos in full bloom is a wonder¬ 
ful sight. (See page 39.) 
Solfaterre. (C. T.) Clear sulphur-yel¬ 
low; large and double. Foliage and char¬ 
acter of growth very similar to Marechal 
Niel. A splendid climber and profuse and 
constant bloomer; the flowers do not blight, 
wilt or fade in the hot midsummer sun, 
like many of the other fine varieties. With 
proper pruning, it makes a splendid bush Rose. 
Satisfactory yellow bush Roses are scarce in 
the lower South, and Solfaterre properly pruned 
is one of the best. (See page 39.) 
Marie Van Houtte Roses (see page 45 ) 
YELLOW AND SALMON ROSES, continued 
Mad. Francisca Kruger. (T.) A strong, 
vigorous Rose; a constant bloomer; especially 
fine in early spring and late fall; flowers of 
large size, copper yellow, shaded pink on 
outer petals. 
Marechal Niel. (C. N.) Deep yellow; very 
large; full globular form; delightfully fragrant. 
The finest of all yellow climbing Roses. In the 
South it is at home and grows at its best. 
A strong, vigorous grower, producing its 
flowers freely at all seasons in great abun¬ 
dance. It should have the first place in every 
collection. Excellent either as a porch or as a 
pillar rose. 
Reve d’Or. (C. T.) A free-flowering climbing 
Rose, with salmon-colored buds long and pointed. 
It closely resembles Safrano, but the flowers are 
more double. A very desirable variety and 
unsurpassed as a climber; holds its foliage well 
and is a strong grower. 
Safrano. (T.) A delicate and beautiful tint 
of salmon, which is always bright and clear, and 
Devoniensis Roses (see page 44)
