most reliable.

largest size; extra. 
MADEMOISELLE BLANCHE MARTIGNAT (Gamon, 1904) The 
shape is extremely long and pointed. It has a distinct light 
silvery color. The flowers are beautiful peach-pink, with 
tints of yellow and crimson, the same colors as seen in the

MADEMOISELLE FRANZISCA KRUGER (Xabonnand, 1880) — 
Nariable; sometimes deep golden-yellow with copper shades, 
then again yellow flushed rosy-pink. 
MADISON (Brandt Hentz, 1912)—This is the “money-maker” 
among the cut flower Roses, and is a greatly improved Bride, i 
and when we say improvement, we mean a genuine improve¬ 
ment. The best feature of Madison is that the foliage does ; 
not mildew. All know how badly the Bride mildews. Well, 
Madison is mildew-proof. Then after being planted and | 
well-established, Madison will cut as many flowers as Kil- 
larney, cutting steady each month in the year. Madison is 
a grand addition to our list of forcing Roses. Remember that 
“Madison” is the money-maker.

ter. The petals charmingly reflex. The growth is vigorous ! 
and erect, and it is free and continuous in bloom, de¬ 
liciously fragrant (Marechal Niel perfume) ; superb in every

tinuing in bloom until the winter. Awarded the gold medal

MRS. FOLEY HOBBS (Alex. Dickson, 1910) — It is a veritable 
giant among Teas. The huge thick shell-shaped petals create

faintly tinged pink on the edges of the petals. Deliciously i 
perfumed. This Rose stands without a rival.

the salmon-pinks and the rose-pinks and the beautiful flesh
