China Roses —Standard Varieties 
Named by some Bengal Roses; natives of China. Introduced into our gardens in 1720. They are of luxuriant growth, and 
ure so constantly in flower during summer and autumn, and give so little trouble. These Roses are so fine for bedding and 
massing for color effect that they ought to be cultivated in preference to many annuals. They are hardier than the Tea Roses. 
AGRIPPINA (Coquereau, 1832) — An old standby; velvety crim¬ 
son ; abundant bloomer. 
ARCHDUKE CHARLES (Laffay) — Opens red, changing to sil¬ 
very-pink.

highly prized as a fine bedder, as it blooms very freely.

pink, always in bloom. Much larger flower than Hermosa. 
FEUER2AUBEN (Schmidt, 1914) Strong, compact, upright 
growth. Color velvety scarlet-red. This is one of the most 
brilliant red garden Roses in existence.

white, fiery-red center; cup-shaped; semi-double; flowers in 
clusters; so free in bloom as to present a blaze of scarlet.

flue both for pot and garden culture.

very floriferous; fine bedder.

like Champion of the World ; only claimed to be freer flow¬ 
ering. 
RAGGED ROBIN (Gloire des Rosonianes) (Vibert, 1825) — (C.) 
Here is a fine old Rose that has been revived and re- 
cliristened out on the pacific Coast in California because it

double, very large and extremely sweet scented : indeed it is

sembles a large, fine, fluffy Peony, but without a suggestion 
of stiffness, often measuring eight to nine inches in diameter 
An enthusiastic admirer from the sate of Oregon describes it 
as a Rose reminding him of a beautiful girl wearing a light
