D.\RK PINK KIII-ARNEV. With a 

 Killarney habit and a color that can he 

 equalled^ only by the lobe of a Cattleya, it 

 sells on sight. 



DOUBLE PINK KILLARNEY. Stronger 

 in growth than the parent and with a large, 

 perfect flower, it stands alone in its class 

 as the representative of the highest type 

 of forcing roses. 



PRINCE DE Bl)LG.4RIE. As a twelve 

 months rose this variety is good, while for 

 a spring, sumiuer and fall l>lo(inier it has 



no equal in its color. And in its color, 

 there is the character that is called I'fo 

 It is bard to describe the color. "Rosy 

 tiesh" is near, but it does not describe the 

 impression the color malies. For a nione.v- 

 setter the rose has been a wonder.
