HYBRID,TEA ROSES- Concluded 
MRS. WEMYSS QUIN (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—Intense lemon- 
chrome, overlaid with a delicate maddery orange, giving It a 
rare depth of color, virtually a golden-orange, which, when 
the blooms fully open, become deep non-fading canary-yel¬ 
low. Undoubtedly much the best yellow Rose in color yet 
distributed. 
NATIONAL EMBLEM (McGrcdy, 1915)—Dark crimson of per¬ 
fect shape, habit and inflorescence; as a bedding, massing 
and cutting Rose it is unique. Buds long and pointed, open¬ 
ing to large, full, handsome flowers of great beauty, flower¬ 
ing freely and continuously. 
NELMORE (Meyers & Santmann. 1916)—This is a greatly im¬ 
proved Killarney, being much deeper in color. It is just as 
good a forcer as Killarney and will undoubtedly supersede 
that well-known variety. 
OLD GOLD (McGredy, 1913)—This is undoubtedly the most 
beautiful bedding Rose in existence, and the most glorious 
color that has ever been seen in any Rose; the tint is a 
vivid reddish-orange with rich coppery-red and coppery - 
apricot shadings. The finest novelty yet raised and beautiful 
beyond description. Awarded the gold medal of the National 
Rose Society.

RED LETTER DAY (Alex. Dickson, 1914)—An exceedingly
