 offer than our list for 1912. ^ 



DOUBLE WHITE KILLARNEY 



(The Budlong Strain) 1912 



With its stronger, more vigorous growth, larger and heavier 

 flowers, double the petalage and purer white, is a tremendous 

 improvement over White Killarney, and is sure to be a money- 

 maker not only for winter forcing but for summer growing. 

 We recomniend it as being the very best commercial ^hite rose 

 today. As a summer rose, it is such an improvement over 

 Kaiserin that some of the larger growers are going to discard 

 Kaisetin for Double White !^illa»ney. 



DOUBLE PINK KILLARNEY

A more vigorous grower than Pink Killarney, heavier 

 bud, about double the petalage, a trifle lighter in color, 

 a good all-year-round rose, particularly during the sum-
