6 CATALOGUE OF COTTAGE ROSE GARDEN, COLUMBUS, OHIO. Mew Rose, Pink Bedder. Most profuse bloomer of its class. Perfectly hardy and a free grower. In color it may be described as a charming peach-blow pink, or pale rose madder, deepening towards the center, reminding one of a perfect Hermosa, although more double than the latter. The flower is medium size, very full, and beautifully cupped. In the open ground it is always a mass of flowers from Spring until early Winter. Price, for young plants, 25c each. Mew Tea Rose, Souv. de Jeanne Cabaud. Outer petals coppery - yellow, shading apricot and carmine toward the center.

Coronet is a true ever-biooming Hybrid Tea. It is full to the cen- ter, and when entirely open the flowers do not look unlike Paeonies. In the bud the color is a deep rich carmine, which, as the flowers open, lightens to a soft, clear pink, with each petal distinctly edged with silvery gray. The effect is beauti- ful. The fragrance is delicious. Price, for young plants, 25c each. Mew Tea Rose, Maid of Honor. This splendid new Rose is a sport of the Bridesmaid which it resembles in general habit and style of growth, but is several shades deeper in color than its parent, making it a rich, deep glowing crimson-pink.
