Marie Adelaide, Grand Duchess of Luxembourg 
MRS. AMBROSE RICARDO (McGredy, 1914)—Deep honey- 
yellow, overlaid brighter yellow; of great size and sub¬ 
stance; amongst yellow Roses this is the largest yet raised. 
It is quite distinct from anything else grown, and a Rose 
destined to take a leading place among Hybrid Teas on ac¬ 
count of its grand size and form, unique coloring and free¬ 
dom of flowering. A really magnificent Rose; fragrant. Sil¬ 
ver gilt medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. ANDREW CARNEGIE (Cocker, 1913)—Sent out by James 
Cocker & Sons, of Aberdeen, Scotland. This Rose is an 
epoch-making flower, as an old Kentish grower put it, “a 
nailer." At the stand where Mrs. Andrew 7 Carnegie was 
shown there was a big crow’d around it all the time the 
show was open. Queen Alexandra admired it as she passed 
through the show in the morning before the great rush 
of the afternoon. One enthusiast describes it as hav¬ 
ing "lit up the whole show 7 ." With its handsome shape and 
delicious fragrance it combines a color that entrances. Pale 
lemon-yellow at base of the petals, shading to pure white. 
Won the gold medal, N. It. S.

large and full, produced freely and continuously. Color

cellence. Gold medal, N. R. S. 
MRS. MACKELLAR (Alex. Dickson, 1915)—The glorious

Rose that is unworthy to grow."

ful flower of clear bright pink, reverse of petals rosy or
