10 THE GOOD & REESE COMPANY’S WHOLESALE TRADE LIST. 
Hybrid Tea Roses, Standard Varieties— Concluded 
MRS. ISABEL MILNER (Win. Paul & Son, lu07.) — Ivory- 
white. suffused pink, delicately margined with mauve; tine. 
MRS. WALTER EASLEA (Alex Dickson, 1010.) — A distinct 
and charming Rose; of imbricated form and robust, vigor¬ 
ous and erect growth. The blooms are large, full and are 
most freely produced. The color is a glowing crimson-car¬ 
mine, which, as the flower expands, deepens to intense 
crimson-orange, the back of the petals, being an intense 
satiny-crimson, lends additional charm to this lovely variety. 
MY MARYLAND (Cook, 1909.)—One of the finest American 
introductions. It has jumped into popular favor at once, 
sweeping the decks of both Europe and America clean. The 
plant is of strong, vigorous growth. Extremely free flower¬ 
ing, every shoot bearing one or more flowers, which are 
double; of perfect form. Color, glowing intense pink, which 
lightens up beautifully as the flower expands. Strongly and 
delightfully fragrant. It will bear more flowers than any 
other Rose we know excepting “Grossherzogin Friedrich." 
After a full test, we can recommend My Maryland as a gar¬ 
den Rose par excellence. 
OLIVIA (Hill, 1907.)—The ideal red bedding Rose; was al¬ 
ways just a little ways ahead — never quite reached. Such 
varieties as Meteor, Helen Gould, General McArthur, Gruss 
an Teplitz, Etoile de France each lack something to make 
them ideal. Rhea Reid came nearer the mark in some locali¬ 
ties, but now comes Olivia, coming under the wire first an 
easy winner. It has more petals in it than General Mc¬ 
Arthur and is a shade lighter in color than Rhea Reid, but 
has them both, backed off of the boards when it comes to 
free bloming. A superb Rose. 
PEERLESS (Lippiatt, 1907.) Almost pure white with pale 
flesh center; large, full, well formed; very floriferous. 
PERLE VON GODESBERG (Schneider, 1902.) — The Yellow 
Kaiserin. This is identical with Kaiserin Augusta Victoria, 
the peer of any Rose, except in color, being a pure white 
with yellow center. Exquisitely beautiful. 
PIERRE GUILLOT (Guillot, 1879.)—The freest blooming of 
all the Roses we grow ; large, handsome buds and flowers of 
richest, deepest red. A wonder. 
PRESIDENT TAFT (McCullough, 1908.)—This Rose was 
raised in Cincinnati, the home of President Taft, and let us 
say right here, while some of you may not admire the 
President himself, you will, one and all, admire the Rose 
given his name. It is without question the most remark¬ 
able of all pink Roses. It has a shining, intense, deep 
pink color possessed by no other Rose. It is a fine grower, 
free bloomer, good size and form, fragrant, and in a class 
by itself as to color. Our Mr. Frank Good, who is probably 
familiar with more Roses than any man in. America, says: 
“Talk all you want to about the Rose President Taft, and 
then you will not say enough." 
PRINCE DE BULGARIE (Pernet Ducher, 1901.)—Silvery-flesh 
very delicately shaded with salmon, long bud opening to full 
cup-formed flowers; a distinct and very charming variety. 
Mark the prediction "Prince de Bulgarie" will be in the 
forefront of all forcing Roses. 
PRINCIPAL A. H. PIRIE (Bernaix, 1910.) — Silvery-pink with 
salmon tints and cochineal center. Large and full. A most 
glorious Rose. 
QUEEN BEATRICE (Kramer, 1907.) — One of the very finest 
bright pink Roses, the color being very clear, very much the 
shade of Mrs. Robert Garrett. Buds and flowers are of fine 
form, very free in bloom. A grand Rose. 
QUEEN OF SPAIN (Bide, 1907.)—Flowers very large and 
very full; large, smooth petals, of good substance; perfectly 
formed flowers, with high pointed center. Color delicate 
flesh with deeper center. An ideal Rose. 
RADIANCE (Cook, 1909.) A brilliant rosy-carmine, displaying 
beautiful rich and opaline-pink tints in the open flower. The 
form is fine, largest size and full, with cupped petals. It 
blooms constantly and is delightfully fragrant. This is a 
superior Rose. 
RHEA REID (Hill, 1908.)—This is the new red forcing Rose; 
flower large and double, very free blooming and exquisitely 
fragrant, rich dark velvety red; a good red garden Rose. 
The flowers are double, of fine size, while the color is alL 
that is to be desired. 
RICHMOND (Hill, 1905.)—Pure rich scarlet, a seedling from 
Lady Battersea; very free and continuous flowering, splen¬ 
did forcer. 
ROSEMARY (Hill, 1907.)—Satiny silvery-pink; large, full and 
very floriferous. This we consider one of the best Roses we 
have. Certainly grand. 
SENATEUR MASCURAND (Pernet Ducher, 1909.)—This is 
our pick of all the yellow Hybrid Tea Roses; it is a good 
grower, very free bloomer; flowers are large, full and glob¬ 
ular; color deep orange-yellow, lighter on the edge of the 
petals. This is a much better garden Rose than Mrs. Aaron 
Ward. When we say orange-yellow we do not mean lemon- 
yellow; it is the yellowest of all Roses. 
SOUVENIR DE PRESIDENT CARNOT (Pernet Ducher, 1895.) 
—Delicate flesh shaded to white; might best be described as 
having a flush of fawn overspreading the flower; large, an 
extra fine Rose. 
SOUVENIR OF WOOTTON (Cook, 1890.) — Choice velvety red, 
very distinct; a most excellent Rose. 
TRIUMPH DE PERNET PERE (Pernet Pere, 1890.)—This is 
a fine bedding Rose possessing many good qualities; a pure 
magenta-red ; distinct and desirable. 
VISCOUNTESS FOLKESTONE (Bennett, 1886.)—There is no 
Rose of any class that beats this superb variety. The color 
is a white suffused with fawn. Very large in size, very free 
bloomer. A most wonderful Rose. 
WELLESLEY (VVaban Conservatories, 1905.) — Wellesley has 
been awarded some of the best prizes at the Rose shows all 
over the country. The color is a beautiful shade of pink, 
the outside of the petals being very bright in color, with sil¬ 
very reverse. Fine in the field. 
W. E. LIPPIATT (Alex. Dickson, 1907.) — Brilliant velvety 
crimson, shaded maroon; very strongly scented. Large, full, 
distinct. A first rate Rose. 
WHITE KILLARNEY (Waban Rose Company, 1909.)—A sport 
from Killarney. Grand in every way. The white forcing Rose 
of the century. Superior to its parent in every particular. 
Words cannot describe its imposing grandeur. This is the 
greatest forcing Rose of any color or class. Benches of it 
during the winter give the appearance of a bank of snow. It 
is pure white in color, long in bud, of fine form ; in fact, it 
is the one Rose par excellence. Planted in the garden it 
conies with a delicate pink tinge that if anything adds to its 
beauty. A great acquisition and a really wonderful Rose. 
WHITE LA FRANCE or AUGUSTINE GUINOISSEAU (Guin- 
oisseau, 1889.) — Beautiful light fawn color, almost white; 
rightly described as an almost white La France. Extra fine. 
WILLIAM NOTTING (Soupert & Notting, 1904.) — This Rose 
was first sent out in this country under the name of Indiana. 
By some mishap it has been overlooked in the shuffle. We 
have found out it is a first-class Rose and we will in a man¬ 
ner resurrect it. The flowers are very large and full; color 
a bright rosy-cerise, center deeper, sweetly perfumed. It is 
a grand bedding Rose. 
WILLIAM SHEAN (Alex. Dickson, 1906.)—Purest pink, petals 
shell-shaped, four to five inches long; flowers of immense size 
and substance and of perfect form ; free blooming and dis¬ 
tinct. Gold medal, N. R. S. You will have to travel a long 
ways before you beat this Rose for the garden. 
WINNIE DAVIS (Nanz, 1902.)—A glorious Hybrid Tea Rose 
of remarkably good qualities; it's a seedling from Mine. Abel 
Chatenay with the rich coloring of Sunrise, a veritable sun¬ 
burst of color. 
YVONNE VACHEROT (Soupert & Notting, 1905.)—Color porce¬ 
lain-white, strongly marked with pure pink; long pointed 
buds of splendid form carried on stiff stems and opening to 
very large flowers. Awarded the gold medal at Liege. 
TEA SCENTED ROSES NEW VARIETIES SCARCE FEW 
T HE original blush Tea Scented Rose. A variation of the 
with the yellow China, or Tea Rose introduced in 1824, it 
Tea Roses are distinguished from others by the delightful 
nankeen, salmon, copper wanting in Hybrid I’erpetuals. They 
being especially fine during the autumn months. These are ever 
ALEXANDER HILL GRAY (Alex. Dickson. 1911.) — The re¬ 
spect of all Rose lovers warrants the issuing of a champion 
Rose, and a Tea at that, to pay due homage to one of the 
world’s greatest Tea Rose growers. It. is wonderfully florif¬ 
erous. every shoot being crowned with a flower bud, which 
develops into a bloom of very large size, great substance and 
perfect formation, with high pointed center from which the 
petals gracefully reflex. The best and largest pure yellow 
Tea Rose yet introduced. Its color is a solid deep through¬ 
out. "Marechal Niel"-like lemon-yellow; strongly tea scented. 
Gold medal, X. R. S. 
LITTLE DORRIT (Paul & Son, 1912.) — Creamy-yellow, the 
outer petals heavily edged and splashed with vivid blood-red 
*and coppery-rose; when quite open a beautiful silvery-pink, 
contrasting finely with the deep half open buds; most effec¬ 
tive, very free and perpetual. 
China Rose ; was imported from China in 1810. In combination 
has been the origin of all the splendid varieties we now’ possess, 
fragrance of the flowers and by the delicate shades of yellow, 
bloom in great perfection during the entire summer and autumn, 
-bloomers, half hardy. 
LADY HILLINGDON (Lowe & Shawyer, 1910.)—At the Detroit 
Rose show in January, 1912, this was awarded the sweep- 
stakes over all yellow Roses. It has long willowy stems that 
are in no sense weak, as the buds are held upright; has a 
long slender pointed bud of brilliant deep golden-yellow, and 
a striking peculiarity of this Rose was that each day of the 
show this golden-yellow color became deeper yellow and more 
intense, unlike all other yellow Roses with which we are 
familiar, as invariably the tendency after being cut is to get 
lighter in color. This Rose at no stage of its development 
shows this lighter color as does Sunburst and other of the 
yellow Roses, but is always an even, deep intense golden- 
yellow; forces well. Awarded gold medal, N. R. S. 
MADAME BEATRICE EPHRUSSI (Xabonnand, 1912.) — Car¬ 
mine-rose shaded buff and tinted with copper with a beautiful 
center of distinct golden chamois; large, full, sweetly scented.
