“Ohe “Rosev 
‘Hope is like a harebell trembling from its birth, 
Love is like a rose the joy of all the earth, 
Faith is like a lily lifted high and white, 
Love is like a lovely rose the world’s delight. 
Harebells and sweet lilies show a thornless growth, 
But the rose with all its thorns excels them both.” 
Christina Georgina Rossetti. 
New and Patented Hybrid Tea Roses 
For garden decoration or as an ideal cut-flower it is doubtful if this class 
of Roses can be surpassed. The short, easily managed plants bloom from June 
until frost. The varieties listed represent what we consider the best of the new 
introductions. 
Alezane (Plant Patent No. 116). The unique reddish-brown buds open into 
cup-shaped flowers of a rich apricot shade. Unlike most Roses of a similar 
shade, the color is unaffected by the rain or heat. $1.25 each; $12.50 per doz. 
Anne Vanderbilt (Brownell). Everblooming ‘‘sub-zero hybrid tea’’ with large, 
gracefully formed semi-double flowers, often on long, stiff stems. Coppery 
orange hues, shading to deep rose pink, with the buds opening nearly to a 
grenadine red. Delicately fragrant. The bush is informal, full branched 
and abounds in a constant quantity of blooms. $1.50 each; $15.00 per doz. 
Break O’ Day. (Brownell). Orange to apricot. Wery vigorous. Free bloomer. 
HARDY. $1.50 each; $15.00 doz. 
Countess Vandal (Plant Patent No. 38). The perfumed perfectly formed 
flowers are a blending of delicate copper and salmon shades. Excellent 
disease-resistant foliage. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz.
