The enthusiastic euphony of its name is at once reflected in the 

 brilliance of its flower, vivid cerise pink, a color that fairly scintil- 

 lates in the sunlight. The texture of the flower is very firm, thereby- 

 insuring good lasting qualities, and the foliage is luxuriant and 

 leathery. Extremely popular as a cut flower, the stems are strong.

 rose. It is extremely free blooming, the flowers, 

 which average from 2 Yi to 3 inches across, pos- 

 sess a lovely cup formation, and the color in the

 develops, becomes a soft, deep pink with a 

 warmth and loveliness that appeals to all. It

Rose 



rNigretfe- 



NIGRETTE "■ s : ««»* 



Patent No. 87 



None genuine without this plant label 



Blackish maroon. The almost black buds 

 open to daik maroon blooms which in their 

 deepest shades give the impression of black 

 velvet. It is so dark that when it was first 

 shown the newspapers throughout the world heralded it as "The 

 Black Rose of Sangerhausen." Certainly, never before have we seen 

 a rose which for its depth of coloring called forth such praise and 

 astonishment. The color varies with the season and weather through 

 many delightful shades. With us the flowers are at their best and 

 darkest after, the cool nights of autumn arrive. 



Nigrette's popularity will not depend solely on its remarkable 

 color, for it is unusually fragrant, with a delightful old-rose scent, 

 and the medium-sized plants are almost continuously in bloom. 



This is a novelty rose that will give you pleasure from June until 

 frost. (Patentee's description.) 



Price, 2-year-old dormant plants up to 

 April 10th, $2.00 each; $20.00 doz.; pot- 

 grown, S2.25 each, $22.50 doz.

VIVID MASON P u aie s ni JETS. 



Few roses have had the advantage of 

 appearing in a preview, so to speak, before 

 such an extensive audience as did Vivid 

 Mason. A large bed of it was planted at 

 the Century of Progress, where it commanded 

 the attention and admiration of hundreds 

 of thousands of people. 



Its vigorous upright growth bespeaks a 

 rugged constitution. The flowers are perfectly 

 formed, the petals possess a firm texture

 ever beheld in a flower. Under the trying 

 conditions at Chicago it never appeared 

 without blossoms.
