THE GOOD & REESE CO.’S WHOLESALE TRADE LIST. 
HYBRID TEA ROSES, Standard Varieties—Concluded 
METEOR (Geschwindt, 1887.)—Dark 
maroon. A grand garden Rose. 
MISS KATE MOULTON (Origin unknown.)—Soft shell-pink 
with reverse of petals deeper; very ample foliage with long 
stems. A fine garden Rose as well as a splendid forcer. 
MRS. ARTHUR ROBERT WADDELL (Pernet Ducher, 1908.) — 
Rosy-scarlet buds opening reddish-salmon, reverse of petals 
rosy-scaflet; semi-double flowers. A good decorative variety. 
MRS. DAVID JARDINE (Alex. Dickson, 1908.)—Delightful 
shade of bright rosy-pink, shading in the outer petals to 
salmon-pink; large, perfect form; very highly perfumed. A 
grand Rose In every way. Superb. Unquestionably the finest 
all-around general-purpose Rose. 
MRS. ROBERT GARRETT (Cook, 1899.)—Beautiful shell-pink, 
large expanded flower. The size, brilliant color, free grow¬ 
ing and continuous blooming qualities of this Rose make it 
one desired by everybody. A gem. 
OLIVIA (Hill, 1907.)—The ideal red bedding Rose; was al¬ 
ways just a little ways ahead—never quite reached. Such 
varieties as Meteor, Helen Could, 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 McAr¬ 
thur and is a shade lighter in color than Rhea Reid, but has 
them both backed off of the boards when it comes to free 
blooming. 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. 
PHARISAER (Hinner, 1903.)—This is a great Rose, but has 
not been offered to any extent in this country. There is 
never a Rose exhibition in England that this Rose does not 
have to be taken into account. The color is a rosy-white, 
shaded salmon; large, full and well formed; very free 
blooming. 
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." Do not confound this Rose 
with Leuchtfeuer, which some have attempted to rename 
President Taft. 
PRINCE DE BULGARIE (Pernet Ducher, 1901.)—Sllvery-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. 
PRINCESS BONNIE (Dingee, 1897.)—A Rose of great beauty. 
Color rich brilliant red. 
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; per¬ 
fectly formed flowers, with high pointed center. Color deli¬ 
cate flesh with deeper center. An ideal Rose. 
REINE MARGUERITE d’lTALIE (Soupert & Notting, 1905.) — 
Flowers very large and very full; color bright carmine, with 
center of vivid vermilion. First rate for bedding. Soupert 
& Notting say it is the most floriferous Rose in cultiva¬ 
tion. 
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.K-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 wo 
have. Certainly grand. 
ROSOMANE GRAVEREAUX (Soupert & Notting, 1899.) — 
White, flushed with silvery-pink, reverse rosy-flesh; large, 
good shape, very free flowering. A first-class Rose. 
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 (Waban 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 silvery 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 LA FRANCE or AUGUSTINE GUIN- 
OISSEAU (Guinoisseau, 1889.) — Beautiful 
light fawn color, almost white; this is rightly 
described as an almost white La France. Ex¬ 
tra fine. 
WILLIAM NOTTING (Soupert & Notting, 1904.) 
—This Rose was first sent out in this coun¬ 
try 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 manner, 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 distinct. Gold medal, N. R. 
S. You will have to travel a long ways be¬ 
fore you beat this Rose for the garden. 
WINNIE DAVIS (Nanz, 1902.)—A glorious Hy¬ 
brid Tea Rose of remarkably good qualities; 
it's a seedling from Mme. Abel Chatenay 
with the rich coloring of Sunrise, a veritable 
sunburst of color. 
YVONNE VACHEROT (Soupert & Notting, 
1905.) — Color porcelain-white, strongly 
marked with pure pink; long pointed buds 
of splendid form carried on stiff stems find 
opening to very large flowers. Awarded the 
gold medal at Liege.
