SOUVENIR DE 
C. P. STRASHEIM. 
A very valuable summer-bloom¬ 
ing Tea Rose. It is distinguished 
among the many meritorious Roses* 
we offer for its healthy, vigorous 
habit and its great freedom of bloom. 
From the time the little plants were 
first in bloom in the open ground in 
May it was never out of flower and 
not a sick plant appeared. The color 
is a very delicate shade of primrose- 
yellow with a tint of fawn, the latter 
shade being quite pronounced in the 
center of the flowers. As the flower 
ages the color lightens toward the 
ends of the petals to a light sulphur- 
yellow, almost white, making a 
charming contrast with the darker 
portions of the flowers, giving a very 
finished and unique appearance to it. 
Like all of the ever-blooming monthly 
Roses, it is at its best during the 
cool days of spring and fall. (See 
cut.)

One of the best of the newer Roses 
for garden purposes. It is excep¬ 
tionally healthy, vigorous and free 
blooming. The flowers are large, 
very double and full. The color is 
a rich bright carmine, with reddish 
tone, and does not fade or bleach in 
the hottest weather. It is quite 
hardy and the flowers are delight¬ 
fully fragrant. 
60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 2d size, 40c. each, 
3d size, 15c. each, $1.50 per doz. 
This grai^d new Rose has been well tested in this country, 
showing that 1 it is well adapted to our climate. It is of 
strong, bushy habit, with splendid, deep green foliage, strong 
and healthy, so that it is almost immune against disease. The 
flowers are very full, large and extraordinarily lasting, keeping 
over a week when cut. The buds are very long, of a most 
beautiful shape and stand proudly erect on long, straight stems. 
The color is yellow with very delicate Chinese pink and saffron- 
yellow shadings; the center of the flower is a very rich golden- 
yellow. It is delightfully fragrant. In its abundance of 
blossoms this grand new variety surpasses all other Roses of 
every type; plants of a few months’ growth are never without 
buds or blossoms throughout the season. While the first flower- 
buds are developing on top new growths appear below bearing 
another crop, and this is succeeded by others. (See cut.)

$4.00 per doz.; 3d size, 20c. each, $2.00 per doz.

ably free flowering and possesses unusually fine keeping qualities.
