D • . u . Introduced by Bevet in 1S7 S and is known as 
Keine lVl&rie rlenrictte one of our best climbers. The plant supplies an 
(Hybrid Tea) abundance of very large, full, double flowers 
finely formed and of a beautiful cherry red color, highly scented. The buds 
are of pleasing proportions. Both flowers and buds are of clustering habit. 
This variety is extensively used for cut-flower purposes. 
D . , , This variety was originated at Richmond, Indiana, from whence 
Richmond it got its name. It greatly resembles the American Beauty. 
(Hybrid Tea) but does not grow to as large a size. 
The plant is a sturdy grower, with deep green foliage of large size, sup¬ 
porting on thick heavy stems large flowers of vivid red color. The flowers 
open out to full size showing very large delicate petals. This is one of the 
very few distinctive American roses grown today. 
To those desiring a rose of a deep fawn color, the Safrano is un- 
Safrano excelled. The flowers when first open are a dark fawn in color, 
(Tea) changing to a light fawn. 
The bush is a strong grower and does well in all sections.

Introduced by Henderson in 1884 and is said to be a sport from the 
Sunset well known Perle des Jardins which it resembles strongly in habit 
(Tea) and shape. The bush is a strong grower, with foliage of a coppery 
color and very beautiful. The flowers are of a beautiful golden amber color 
with a faint ruddy tint. Highly recommended for its extreme beauty. 
A strong growing variety that needs no introduction to the rose 
The Bride grower. This highly fragrant, double flower of pure white 
(T ea ) sometimes tinged with pink, is without a doubt one of the most 
popular roses of its class. The foliage is large, deep green, supported by a 
bush of vigorous growth. Blossoms freely and is an ideal plant for the rose 
garden. 
Introduced by Levet in 1881. The cherry-red blossoms 
Ulrich Brunner set well above the foliage, on long slend-er stems make 
(Hybrid Perpetual) them decidedly attractive. The flowers are large, full 
and globular in shape, blooming very profusely and constantly during its 
season. The plant is a strong vigorous and compact grower. The color of this 
rose is not to be found in any other variety and to those wishing something 
out of the ordinary we can recommend nothing better. 
This is a very valuable variety for either hot 
White Maman Cochet house or outdoor propagation. When grown 
(Tea) in the hot house it grows to an enormous size, 
very round and full in shape and of an elegant clear white color. When grown 
in the rose garden or outside it does almost as well but changes somewhat 
in color being of a pinkish white. 
On acdount of the high quality flowers and the fine growing features of this 
rose we certainly feel that it should be planted by all lovers of roses.
