^I^E WHITE KILLARNEY 



We Know You Will Want to Buy White Killarney 



Every live, progiesslvo, up to-date grower who has seen It 

 is buying it; but when vou buy White Killarney, be sure yon 

 get the right White Killarney (the Waban variety). When yon 

 buy from us you get the variety that has been exhibited and 

 certificated, and the one that has attracted such favorable 

 mention. 



If you are in the vicinity of New York, we should be glaa 

 to have vou call and see White Killarney growing at cm 

 Scarborough range, and you will say at a glance — as everyone 

 has who has seen It growing— that it Is by far the best white 

 rose that has ever been placed on the market. 



It is not only a good winter-flowering rose, but is good the 

 entire year, and It is a splendid shipper. Read the following let- 

 ter received from Mr. Willis N. Rudd, Secretary of the SocletT 

 of American Florists, dated Januaiy 18th, In which he writes a» 

 follows: , ... 



•'Dear Mr. Plerson: — I cannot refram from writing 

 you and expressing my admiration for the White Kil- 

 larney as shown at Chicago on Thursday. It is an ex- 

 quisitely beautiful thing and attracted much attention. 

 I took half the blooms home with me, and they w;ere 

 finer on Saturday than they were at the show. The 

 record Is that these blooms were shipped from Tarry- 

 town, staged and exhibited during the afternoon. They 

 \\ere then carelessly wrapped up in a box, and remained 

 in tliat box until one o'clock Friday morning, at which 

 time I reached home; Improved in quality up to bat- 

 iirdav. and were in fairly presentable condition on 



^"° •■"in addition to being the most lieautiful white rose 

 of its class which I have seen, this demonstrates its 

 splendid keeping and shipping quallH^es^ ruDD " 

 We were awarded Silver Cup at National Flower 

 Show, Chicago, for best new rose with White Kil- 

 larney; also Silver Medal Horticultural Society of New 

 York. ^ .
