MISS ELLA V. BAINES, THE WOMAN FLORIST, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 



NEWER 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. 



AMERICAN BEAUTY— Not a new 

 Rose, but a great favorite with ev- 

 erybody. It is the largest of all 

 red Roses. Always scarce. We 

 have a fine stock. Price, 25 cents; 

 two-year-old, 50 cents. 



AVOCA — Brilliant velvety-crimson 

 with large smooth petals and high 

 pointed center ; buds very long ; 

 flowers of largest size and sweetly 

 perfumed. Awarded gold medal of 

 National Rose Society of England. 

 This is catalogued abroad as a 

 Hybrid Tea ; in America it is a 

 Hybrid Perpetual. Price, 20 cents; 

 two-year-old, 40 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. Price, 20 cents each ; 

 two-year-old, 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 penetrating fragrance of the 

 old June Roses. I have grown 

 this Rose for four years, in sec- 

 tions of the country from Canada 

 to the Gulf, and I have no hesi- 

 tancy in saying after the most 

 thorough and rigid test that a Rose 

 can be put to that this Rose is in 

 every respect just what I claim 

 for it. That is, the very best all 

 around Rose ever introduced- by 

 anyone, and to this I make not 

 a single exception. It grows vig- 

 orously, it blooms freely, is abso- 

 lutely hardy, flowers of the largest 

 size ; the form is perfect, the color- 

 ing unequaled and the fragrance 

 delicious. Can you ask more? 

 Price, 25 cents; two-year-old, 50 

 cents. 



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 

 crimson, very bright and rich, of 

 the largest size. We know of no 

 red hybrid that in any way com- 

 pares with. it. Price, 20 cents 

 each, two-year-old, 50 cents. 



Frau Karl Druschki, the "White American Beauty." 



DUC DE ROHAN — This is a grand Rose, the flowers are very 

 large and of symmetrical form, somewhat globular, very full 

 and extremely fragrant ; the color is a clear dazzling bright 

 red, free bloomer, certainly a prize winner. Price, 20 cents 

 each; two-year-old, 50 cents. 



EUGENE FURST— In this Rose we have one of the most dis- 

 tinct and valuable additions to our garden Roses that has 

 been made in many years. It is large and full, fine form. 

 Color deep red shaded crimson. Profuse bloomer. A most 

 charming and superbly grand Rose. Price, 20 cents each ; 

 two-year-old, 50 cents. 



HIS MAJESTY— The Crimson Frau Karl Druschki. Another 

 Rose classed by soma as a Hybrid Tea. Dark deep crim- 

 son, shaded deep vermillion-crimson towards the edges. The 

 blooms are full, of great size, having wonderful substance

 of the sweetest perfumed Roses in cultivation. Awarded 

 gold medal, N. R. S., 1908. A grand all around Red Hybrid.

 A Rose that will be widely planted. Price, 25 cents; twq- 

 year-old, 50 cents,
