TEA-SCENTED ROSES 
New Varieties and a 
Few that are Scarce. 
The original blush Tea Scented Rose. A variation of the China Rose; was imported from China in 
1810. In combination with the Yellow China, or Tea Rose introduced in 1824, it has been the origin of 
all the splendid varieties we now possess. Tea Roses are distinguished from others by the delightful 
fragrance of the flowers and by the delicate shades of yellow, nankeen, salmon, copper, wanting in Hy¬ 
brid Ferpetuals. They bloom in great profusion during the entire summer and autumn, being especially 
fine during the autumn months. These are ever-bloomers; half hardy. 
LADY PLYMOUTH (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—A most 
distinct and meritorious Rose of the “Souvenir de 
Pierre Notting” type, whose delicate pearly but 
deep Ivory cream petals are very faintly flushed, 
giving it a most piquant finish that is difficult to 
describe. It is delicately pure tea perfumed. 
Awarded gold medal, N. R. S., and silver medal, 
Crystal Palace, London. 
MRS. CAMPBELL HALL (Alex. Dickson, 1914) —Del¬ 
icate creamy-buff, edged or suffused rosy-carmine.

fawn. Very deliciously fragrant. Awarded gold 
medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. s. T. WRIGHT (Alex. Dickson, 1914) —A de¬ 
lightful Rose, a ,sport from that prime favorite 
“Harry Kirk.” The guard petals are delicate cad¬ 
mium old gold; the center petals have a delicate 
and charming suffusion of delightful, pure rose 
pink on cadmium orange-chrome. A very intense 
silk finished apricot. Has a deliciously pervad¬ 
ing hybrid-Persian perfume. 
WHITE SHAWYER (Trotty, 1915)—This is a sport 
from that grand forcing Rose, Mrs. George Shaw- 
yer, and like its parent is a glorious forcer. In¬ 
deed, some growers claim that it will super¬ 
sede all the white forcing Roses. Snow-white, of 
the largest size, and a good keeper. It is a good 
garden Rose, being a strong, vigorous grower and 
free bloomer. Don’t forget White Shawyer when 
making up your planting list.
