14 MISS ELLA V. BAINES, THE WOMAN FLORIST, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 
HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 
NEWER AND SCARCE VARIETIES 
The first_Hybrid Perpetuals were grown from crosses between Hybrid China and Tea Scented Roses with Gallica and Bour- 
bon Roses. This is a beautiful class and cannot be too highly recommended, including, as it does, many of the hardiest early 
and late flowering kinds, and nearly all of the superb rich crimson, red and pink varieties which make such pleasing contrasts 
to the yellow and white Teas. These are hardy. 
AMERICAN BEAUTY—Not a new 
Rose, but a great favorite with 
everybody. It is the largest of all 
red--Roses.. Always scarce. We 
have_a_fine stock. 25 cents; two- 
year plants, 60 cents. 
BARBAROSSA (The Red Frau Karl 
Druschki)—A noteworthy new Hy- 
brid Perpetual that has jumped 
into favor in a very,.short time. It 
is very large and full; color a 
brilliant tone of pure carmine-red ;*= 
very free bloomer, and deliciously 
fragrant. 20 cents; two-year 
plants, 50 cents. 
BARONESS ROTHSCHILD—An old 
Rose but hard to get hold of. The 
large blooms are grown on stiff, 
erect canes. Color clear bright 
pink, ~The foliage grows right up 
to the flower, and thus makes a 
bouquet of each individual bloom. 
40-cents; two-year plants, $1.00. 
CAPTAIN HAYWARD — This Rose 
ranks up at the top of the list. 
Mr. Crowell, the noted rosarian, 
claims for this the very best of all 
red Hybrids. Color deep glowing 
erimson, very bright and rich, of 
the largest size. We know of no 
red hybrid that in any way com- 
pares with it. 20 cents; two-year 
plants, 50 cents. 
CONRAD FERDINAND MEYER — 
This Rose has Rugosa blood in its 
make up and is classed by some 
as a Hybrid Rugosa; it’s the best 
Hybrid Perpetual you have ever 
known. This is a grand Rose, a 
vigorous grower, and free bloomer ; 
flowers large, perfectly double, 
cup-shaped. Color deep, bright, 
vivid, intense pink, with the pene- 
trating fragrance of the old June 
Roses. We have grown this Rose 
for four years, in sections of the 
country from Canada to the Gulf, 
and we have no hesitancy in say- 
ing after the most thorough and 
Tigid test that a Rose can be put 
to that this Rose is in every re- 
spect just what we claim for it. 
That is, the very best all around 
Rose ever introduced by anyone, 
and to this we make not a single 
exception. It grows vigorously, it 
blooms freely, is absolutely hardy, 
flowers of the largest size; the 
form is perfect, the coloring un- 
equaled and the fragrance de- 
licious. Can- you ask more? 20 
cents; two-year plants. 50 cents. 
CORONATION — The flowers, which 
are freely produced, are of im- 
mense. size... Color shading from 
flesh to bright shrimp-pink. This 
is undoubtedly much the largest Rose yet raised. Awarded 
the gold medal of the National Rose Society, silver medal of 
the Belfast show, and first prize of the Metropolitan show, 
Regent’s Park, London. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 
cents. 
DUCHESS OF SUTHERLAND-—A strikingly distinct and beau- 
tiful Rose of decided merit. The blooms are freely produced. 
Large, full and conical. The petals are unusually large, 
massive, smooth and erect, building up a flower which is a 
whorl of delight and possessing a sweet briar perfume. The 
color is certainly novel—delicate warm rose-pink, with lemon 
shading on the white base; extra fine. 20 cents; two-year 
plants, 50 cents. 
FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI (White American Beauty)—Has be- 
come renowned and justly so. It produces flowers in the 
garden that are better than American Beauty when forced 
under glass. - The color is marvelously white, without a tinge 
of yellow or any other shade, a pure paper-white, hardy as 
an oak. We make a specialty of this wonderful Rose, our 
stock being absolutely true, this we guarantee. The true 
stock is exceedingly scarce. The one best hardy white Rose. 
25 cents; two-year plants, 50 cents. 
Frau Karl Druschki, the White American Beauty. 
GEORGE DICKSON—The introducers of this new Rose say: 
‘This is the best Rose ever raised by us. We make this 
tatement advisedly and with a full sense of our responsibil- 
ity. The Rose is named after the senior member of our firm, 
who is now approaching his eightieth birthday. We are 
quite satisfied that within two years George Dickson will be 
the most popular exhibition Rose in existence. As near as 
we can describe it, the color is a velvety black-crimson, the 
back of the petal being heavily veined with deep pure crim- 
son-maroon. The petals are of splendid shape; of mag- 
nificent substance; delightfully smooth, and built to make 
the form of flower perfection. We have regularly had blooms 
of the highest exhibition standard quite five inches across. 
It has wonderful lasting qualities, not only as to the reten- 
tion of its color, but also in its shape and freshness. 
Awarded the gold medal of the National Rose Society of 
England, besides many other first awards at various shows 
in England and Ireland.” 25 cents; two-year plants, 60c. 
HEINRICH MUNCH—Soft pink, very large and full; vigorous, 
fine for forcing in pots and for garden culture. Took the 
sweepstakes prize at the Boskoop Rose Exhibition in June, 
1913. This is claimed by many to be the pink Frau Karl 
Druschki. 25 cents; two-year plants, 60 cents.
