flowering in clusters; prolific and hardy. 
Mistress Dudley Cross—(W. Paul, 1907.) (T.) Pale, soft 
rosy-yellow, with deeper shadings, delightful in color and of a 
beautifully rounded form, supported on good, erect stems. A 
meritorious new garden variety. 
Mistress Foley-Hobbs—(A. Dickson, 1910.) (T.) Delicate 
ivory-white, faintly tinged clear pink on edges of thick, shell¬ 
shaped, enormous petals which form giant blooms of exquisite

Superb; winner of Gold Medal, N. K. S. 
Mistress Franklin Dennison—(McGredy, 1915.) (H. T.) 
Porcelain-white, veiled in primrose-yellow, deepening to ochre 
at base of petals which recurve to a point. Blooms of grand 
size and models of perfection in form, extraordinarily free and 
and very fragrant. Highly esteemed as a garden Rose. 
Mistress F. F. Thompson—(Totty, 1915.) (II. T.) A lovely 
shade of shell-pink with a deep glowing heart of bright pink 
which wonderfully illuminates the flower. Vigorous in growth 
and persistent in bloom like “Mrs. George Shawyer," from 
which it sported. 
Mistress Fred Straker—(A Dickson, 1910.) (IT. T.) Orange- 
crimson in the bud, developing ns the bloom expands to silvery- 
fawn on front of petals and delicate orange-pink on back—a 
color scheme beyond the power of words to describe. Buds

tipped with a bud. Winner of many awards, one of the most 
popular new forcers, from the raisers of Lady Hillingdon. 
Mistress Gordon Sloane—(A. Dickson, 1912.) (H. T.) Deli¬ 
cate but decided sheeny electric copper on pure deep salmon- 
pink on reflex of petals, against pearly flesh-white on the in¬ 
side which, as the flower develops, becomes delicate coppery- 
shrimp in the center, with creamy outer petals, shell-shaped 
and beautifully arranged. Deliciously fruit-perfumed blooms 
produced in marvelous profusion on erect stems. 
Mistress John Laing—(Bennett, 1887.) (II. P.) A beauty 
in clear, bright, shining pink; each bud in its long, serrated 
calyx with adjacent green foliage, forms a dainty and lovely 
boutonniere; immense, full blooms on long, st'.fT stems; sweetly 
scented.
