HARDY EVER-BLOOMING KOSE, 



KAISERIN AUGUSTA VICTORIA. 



A hybrid Tea Rose, soft pearly-white, lightly tinted with 

 lemon in the center, just enough to relieve the white; remarkably 

 fragrant, a strong, healthy grower, with bold, beautiful foliage. 

 The habit is free; the beautiful, perfectly-shaped flowers are 

 borne in profusion on long, graceful stems, so that it will be in- 

 valuable for cut flowers. Professional florists have been quick to 

 perceive the great value of this peerless variety, and it is now 

 more eagerly sought after than almost any Rose on the market. 



Price, 1st size, 50c. each, $4.50 per doz.; 2d size, 30c. each, 

 $3.00 per doz.; 3d size, 10c. each, $1.00 per doz. 



EVER-BLOOMING ROSE, 



HARDY EVER-BLOOMING KOSE, CLOTHILDE SOUPERT 



One of the most prolific bloomers in our entire list and ad- 

 mirably adapted to garden or pot culture, beginning to flower 

 early and continuing without intermission the entire season if 

 kept in healthy growing condition. The flowers are borne in 

 sprays, very double and handsomely formed. The outer petals 

 are pearly white, shading to a rosy pink in the center. They 

 vary sometimes on the same plant from a pure white to deep 

 silvery rose. A grand bedding variety. 



Price, 1st size, 50c. each, $4.50 per doz.; 2d size, 30c. each, 

 $3.00 per doz.; 3d size, 10c. each, $1.00 

 per doz. 



HERMOSA. 



Although one of the oldest Roses in our list this 

 splendid variety has points of excellence not surpassed 

 by any other and equalled by few. The color is in 

 itself a recommendation; a clear, fresh, bright pink. 

 The flowers are fairly double, cupped petals and of 

 medium size; they are borne in clusters and in lavish 

 profusion. The term " Monthly " was long ago ap- 

 plied to the general class of ever-blooming Roses; but 

 even among these Hermosa received the honor of being 

 called " The Pink Daily Rose " to indicate its per- 

 sistent blooming. It is hardy in this climate with 

 the ordinary protection and is sweetly fragrant. ^

HARDY EVER-BLOOMING ROSE, 



SOUVENIR DU PRESIDENT CARNOT 



Unquestionably the finest Rose of its color intro- 

 duced in a decade. Whether considered from the 

 standpoint of the commercial cut-flower grower or 

 from its fitness for garden work, this Rose is without 

 a superior, and it is doubtful if it has an equal. The 

 growth is vigorous, the foliage dark green and very 

 handsome, but the glory of the variety is in its flower. 

 It is very large, both in the bud and in the expanded 

 flower, double to the center, and opens beautifully. 

 The coloring is nearer like Devoniensis than any Rose 

 on the market at the present time, but it is lighter 

 and approaches nearer to a white. Technically de- 

 scribed, it could be called a rosy-flesh, very soft in 

 the center, and shaded with a lighter flesh at the end of 

 the petals. (See cut.) 



Price, 1st size, 50c. each, $4.50 per doz.; 2d size, 30c. 

 each, $3.00 per doz.; 3d size, 15c. each, $1.50 per doz.
