Seedling Tea Roses.

Madame Caroline Testout. (Hybrid Tea). One of the best Hybrid Tea roses up to date. It is clear and pink and there is nothing in the rose line than can approach it in color; the flower is as free as La France; should have a place in every collection.

True Friend or Climbing Cecil Brunner. A most exquisite new climbing rose, the counterpart of Cecil Brunner in foliage, shape and color, most a most vigorous climber and profuse bloomer. The long graceful branches are wreathed with the charming flowers.

CHEROKEE ROSE. The true single cherokee rose is one of the most aesthetic
flowers in existence. Its beautiful glossy green foliage, and immense snowy
white flowers, make it wonderfully attractive. Another variety resembling it but
not nearly so handsome, is often sold as the Cherokee. I offer the genuine
variety. 15 cts. and 25 cts. each.

Cherokee, Single. We have a fine stock of the true variety of this most esthetic and beautiful rose. The flowers are five or more inches across, pure white and single. It is invaluable for hedges, for covering unsightly places, for trellises or arbors. It has immense branches, resembling the trunks of small trees. The old plants bloom some all the year, but for three months in the spring. It is a sheet of white bloom. The foliage is always clean, glossy and beautiful.
