WHITE KILLARNEY 



We Know You Will Want 



F. R. PIERSON 



to Buy White Killarney 



Every live, progTe«Blve, up-to-date grower who has seen It 

 is buvlDg It; but when you buy ^Vhlte KUlarney, be sure yom 

 get the right White Killarney (the Waban variety). VfTien yoo 

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

 certificated, and the one that has attracted snch favorabl* 

 mention. 



If you are In the vicinity of New York, we should b« glM 

 to have you call and see WTilte KUlarney growing at oat 

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

 has who has seen It growing— that It Is by far the best whn* 

 rose that has ever been placed on the market. 



It is not only a good wlnter-flowerlng rose, but Is good tM 

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

 ter received from Mr. Willis N. Eudd, Secretary of the Society 

 of American Florists, dated January 18th, In which he writes u 

 follows: 



"Dear Mr. Pierson:— I cannot refrain from wrltlnf 

 you and expressing my admiration for the White KU- 

 larney as shown at Chicago on Thursday. It Is an ei- 

 qnlsitely beautiful thing and attracted much attention. 

 I took half the blooms home with me, and they were 

 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 

 were then carelesely wrapped up In a box, and remained 

 in that box untU one o'clock Friday morning, at which 

 time I reached home; improved In quality up to Sat- 

 urday, and were In fairly presentable condition on 



"In addition to being the most beautiful white rose 

 of its class which I have seen, this demonstrates lt« 

 splendid keeping and shipping quallUes. ____ „ 



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.
