It is a Hybrid Tea, a cross be- tween Mad. Abel Chatenay and Liberty, with color an intermediate shade between those of its two parents.

Brooklyn, New York, April 8, 1912. Gentlemen:—'Tis a pity that all mankind has not known the Dingee & Conard Roses. They are well true to their name. My Roses from your firm are better than those from any of the other Rose growers. Yours truly, Frederick Schreck. Richmond A Gorgeous Crimson Rose. The most gorgeous Rose we have ever seen,—no other variety can compare with it. In form and fra- grance of flower it is simply superb. Wonderfully free blooming, its immense, fragrant, scarlet-crimson flow- ers are borne on long, stiff stems, making it a rival of American Beauty, and even more dazzling in ap- pearance. Richmond is a Rose which attained wonder- ful popularity in a marvelously short time, and is con- sidered the standard deep crimson Rose in the florists' shops, selling at all times for high prices. In the gar- den its flowers are a^ fine as those found in the green- houses. Perfectly hardy. 20 cts. each, 3 for 50 cts.; larger size, 25 cts. each, postpaid; two-year-old plants, 45 cts. each; three-year-old plants, 75 cts. each. SOUV. DE MARIA ZAYAS. Flowers very large, full and of perfect form. Color, bright carmine, vein
