on the outer edges. The general shad- 
ing is very similar to that of the Rose

TEA ROSE—VIGOROUS AND HARDY

noted LaFrance and the beloved Marechal Niel. Named Strat- 
ford, commemorating the birth place of Gen. Robert Es Eee:

Roses that probably grew a century or more ago In the gardens 
at Stratford, Virginia. Its blooms are intensely fragrant and 
borne on long stems, opening into large blooms so extremely 
double that there scarcely seems to be room for all the petals.
