Tea Roses.
Cornelia Cook Here is a sweetly fragrant Rose of creamy white, tinged with lemon-yellow and flesh. It blooms profusely, the flowers being very large and shapely. Both form and substance of the blossoms commend them. The plant is of moderate, but rapid growth. The foliage is splendid, and the plant adapted for forcing as well as for house culture and for budding. It does not suffer from attack of insects. Cornelia Cook Rose is one of the most meritorious of the Teas, and is recommended with never a fear of its proving a disappointment to anyone who appreciates the real merits of the Roses

Where They Sleep [chapter on memorial roses]
Cornelia Cook and Triumph of Luxemburg were two more beloved roses devoted to sacred purposes in that dear place and time. Cornelia Cook is a very long-lived rose and ever and always a constant bloomer. Like a Camellia Japonica, it is large, full, smooth-petaled, of waxen texture and as white as driven snow. The beauty of the bloom is not all; the rose bush is symmetrical, luxuriant and clothed with rich green foliage after every other deciduous plant has been stripped of its leaves by wintry blasts. Even after a heavy frost or a light freeze, on the warm, sunshiny days that sometimes come, in the still, soft air, white phantom-like roses will unfold, perfect visions of beauty by contrast with the stricken verdure of the late season. Cornelia Cook, the queen of the white roses of the fifties, was laid at the feet of the queen of song, Jenny Lind. In many old gardens and burying places of the South, fifty-year-old Cornelia Cook rose-bushes are vigorous everbloomers, the plenitude of roses as perfect and beautiful as in the time of their first young growth. Oh, beautiful rose, so fair and so constant!
