MAMAN COCHET—TEA—'"The Elite of the Rose Garden, 
MAMAN COCHET. Tea. (1893.) 3 - 4 feet. 
A famous old tea rose, and one of the finest for cutting. Long a great fav- 
orite—flowers are large to 4 inches, double and beautifully formed— 
very fragrant. Its special feature is its unique color—sometimes pale pink, 
sometimes cream beautifully shaded with various tones of deep-rose. 
Highly recommended for California and all mild climates.

WHITE MAMAN COCHET. Tea. (1896.) 4 - 5 feet. 
The best of the white Tea roses, beautifully formed and satin textured. 
But if you must have your whites simon-pure, not for you, as there is likely 
to be a tinge of blush at certain seasons. 
Says Ralph Dasher of Florence, Alabama, '‘"down where the Teas come 
from,” “Not only among the finest Teas but a beautiful rose which compares 
favorably with any variety old or new. Should be allowed to develop into a huge 
plant, which it will do in mild climates.” 3 for 5.25 each 2.00 
MARECHAL NIEL. Noisette. (1864.) 12 - 15 feet. 
Our efforts to get a true strain of this famous old Noisette climber, in fair 
quantity, at long last, seem to have succeeded. I “knock on wood.” For 
best results needs a warm, sunny spot, in a mild climate only. 
We quote from Dean Hole, 1869... “Since the time when a baby in flori- 
culture, I first began to take notice of Roses, more than thirty years ago, three 
new stars of special brightness have glittered in our firmament—Gloire de Dijon, 
Charles Lefebvre, and Marechal Niel. The latter is, I think, the greatest acquisition, 
because we had no hardy Yellow Rose previous to its introduction, realizing, as 
Marechal Niel does, in the wonderful beauty of its pendant flowers, their size, shape, 
colour, fragrance, longevity and abundance—our every desire and hope.” 2.90
