MRS. TtiEODOSIft B. Stt&PitERD'S ANNUAL GfUftLOGUE, 



double, and deliciously perfumed. 

 The color is a remarkable shade of 

 rich golden amber. It is more highly 

 colored than its parent. The Rose 

 is sure to please. 25c. 



Dr. Grill. Coppery-yellow; with 

 fawny Rose reflex. An entirely new 

 color, and one of great brilliance. 

 The outer petals are large, round 

 and shell-shaped, and inclose a mass 

 of shorter petals, which are of a very 

 brilliant color. A grand garden 

 Rose. 25c. 



Countess Anna Thun. A strong, 

 bushy grower, with flowers freely 

 produced on short, stiff stems; shows 

 the characteristics of a good bedder. 

 It is of immense size, and of the 

 most lovely and perfect form imag- 

 inable. Color a beautiful citron 

 yellow, with coppery and peach cen- 

 ter, shading to salmon and silvery- 

 pink, the colors blending nicely. 

 Certainly a wonderful Rose, both in 

 size and color. 25c. 



Luciole. A very bright carmine 

 Rose, tinted and shaded with saffron- 

 yellow, the base of petals coppery- 

 yellow, back of petals bronze-yellow, 

 large, full, strongly scented, good 

 shape, long buds; a most charming 

 Rose. 25c. 



Marie Lambert. Pure white. It 

 has been called the White Hermosa, 

 as it resembles Hermosa in form and 

 freedom of bloom, and is quite as 

 valuable; for though no claim has 

 been made for it as a fancy Rose, its 

 persistence in bloom will make it a 

 very popular white variety for bed- 

 ding or for pots. Price, 15c. each; 

 large, 25c. to 50c. 



Comtesse De Frigneuse. In color, 

 charming; in freedom of bloom, sec- 

 ond to none. The buds are long 



and pointed, not unlike Niphetos in 

 form, and of good size. The color 

 is a deep golden yellow, with a softer 

 shade inside of petal. 25c. 



Sappho. Buds fawn color, suffused 

 with rose, the opening flowers shaded 

 yellow and tawny buff, centers deep, 

 bright yellow, large, full and globu- 

 lar. It produces bloom with extra- 

 ordinary profusion, even for a Tea 

 Rose. The petals large and of much 

 substance. A splendid Rose to keep 

 after being cut. 25c. each. 



Marquis De Vivens. Flowers pale 

 rose shaded with yellow at the cen- 

 ter, a very delicate and beautiful 

 color; quite single as an open flower, 

 but makes beautiful buds. 25c. 



"The Rainbow." Too much can- 

 not be said in praise of this beauti- 

 ful Rose. It is lovely in bud and 

 blossom, striped and splashed with 

 carmine on a pink ground, its color 

 is exquisite, and all who see it de- 

 sire to possess a plant. Small plants 

 25c; large, strong plants, 50c. 



Madame Hoste. Creamy white 

 color, deepening to pale yellow in 

 the center; blooms constantly and 

 profusely, the magnificent flowers 

 are borne on long, erect stems. 25c. 

 to 50c. each. 



The Queen. A pure white sport 

 from Souvenir d'un Ami. A vigor- 

 ous and healthy grower and contin- 

 uous bloomer, producing a great 

 abundance of buds and flowers all 

 through the season. Buds finely 

 formed; petals thick, of good sub- 

 stance. Opens well and very sweet. 

 25c. 



Mrs. James Wilson. Similar in 

 shape to Catherine Mermet; pale 

 yellow, tipped with rose-pink; a 

 strong and vigorous grower, and will
