 the master tells the chil- 

 dren that rosebushes 

 say this. 



From the third gen- 

 eration of pink prin- 

 cesses crossed with Bon 

 Silene came two fine 

 new roses, the Santa 

 Rosa, which had been 

 planned, and another 

 that was christened 

 "Burbank." The Santa 

 Rosa is a wonderful 

 rose in brilliancy of col- 

 or, size, and habit of 



growth. Each little one commences to bloom as soon as 

 it starts from a cutting, and grows freely and easily, bloom- 

 ing right along. Its flowers are a rich shell-pink, inclining 

 to crimson, full and double. It is truly a rose for every- 

 body. 



The Burbank rose, like its creator, has energy and en- 

 thusiasm. It begins to bloom when quite small, and 

 continues to bloom throughout the year, if the climate is 

 not too severe. In cold climates it rests during the whiter 

 and comes forth at the first call of spring. It is double 

 and of fine form. Its color is deep rose-pink, and it is 



A Burbank rose.
