POLYANTHA OR BABY RAMBLER ROSES 



Newer Varieties 



A class of miniature Roses derived from the Climbing Polyantha. They are of dwarf habit and bloom so freely as to cover the 

 entire plant with bloom. The plants are splendid for bedding, or as edgings for borders, as they are hardy. 



JESSIE — This new Baby Rambler is an ideal 

 Rose for massing, bedding or for pot culture. 

 The flowers, which are produced in huge clus- 

 ters, are of a bright cherry-crimson color 

 which does not fade. Superb. The best of 

 all the Baby Ramblers for pot culture. 

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



MRS. TAFT — This is the improved Baby Ram- 

 bler; clear red in color, not fading like 

 Baby Rambler. Certificate of merit of the 

 London Horticultural Society. Price, 20 

 cents; two-year-old, 40 cents. 



MRS. WILLIAM H. CUTBUSH— Has flowers 

 with the pleasing delicate pink of Dorothy 

 Perkins, blooming in profusion all summer. 

 Extra fine for pot culture. Price, 20 cents; 

 two-year-old, 40 cents. 



ORLEANS — The showiest and prettiest of all 

 the Baby Ramblers. This charming and 

 dainty Rose is of beautiful rounded habit 

 and is a huge bouquet of deep cerise or Ge- 

 ranium-pink with distinct showy center of 

 puie white ; florets not crowded, but of beau- 

 tiful arrangement, making as a whole a 

 charming combination that cannot be beaten. 

 The color is irresistible. The plant grows 

 like a weed and the flowers are nearly 

 "immortelle" in their lasting qualities. I 

 believe that they will outlast almost any 

 other Rose in existence with their stiff paper- 

 like texture. This pretty Rose has taken 

 Europe by storm and will make a sensation 

 as soon as known in this country. Awarded 

 gold medal. Price, 25 cents; two-year-old, 

 "Madison Rose (Seepage 7 a). 50 cents.
