FIRST OF A NEW RACE 



Delphinium (Everblooming Hardy Larkspur) BELLADONNA SEMI-PLENA 



A semi-double turquoise blue flower of the original Belladonna, giving it thereby the larger bloom and more 

 lasting qualities to the flower. Highly desired by the florist trade 'I rade pkt., 



Stock Fraser's "SENSATION" 



This new strain freely throws up fine long spikes 30 inches high, completely dressed with the giant perfect 

 double carmine-rose flowers. The intense color shows up well when cut and makes a very brilliant bit of 

 color in a bed or border. ... Trade pkt., 



Sweet Peas, CALIF. MARATHON SPENCERS 



This new race differs from all other Sweet Peas in size of bloom, number of blooms to a stem and remark- 

 able extra long season of blooming. This mixture is only the forerunner of what we predict to become one 

 of the grandest classes of Sweet Peas in existence . . . : Trade pkt., 



These three novelties of merit, if purchased separately, would cost $1.75. They will be mailed to 

 you complete for $1.00. We want you to acquaint yourself with the quality of our strains.

Kose Ceremony. 



The following article was printed in 

 one of the local newspapers recently: 



"The ceremony of dedicating and 

 naming new roses which took place at 

 Peninsula park proved such a pleasing 

 feature of the rose festival week that it 

 is likely to be incorporated each year in 

 the festivities. 



"Jesse A. Currey, Pacific coast direc- 

 tor of the American Rose Society and 

 originator of the plan of dedicating and 

 naming roses, has notified the Royal 

 Rosarians that he will immediately get 

 in touch with the rose growers through- 

 out the world and secure their consent 

 to have at least one of their new roses 

 named each year in Portland. The Ro- 

 sarians are enthusiastic for the event.
