PETER HENDERSON A. CO., NEW YORK- 



THE MOST UNIQUE ROSE OF A CENTURY. 



(MADAME NORBERT LEVAVASSEUR.) 



Dwarf, Hardy, Perpetual= Flowering 

 Crimson Rambler. 



THE descriptive name of this extremely valuable 

 new Rose, " Dwarf Crimson Rambler," seems 

 a misnomer, yet nothing is more appropriate, for 

 the fame of the " Crimson Rambler" properly belongs 

 to it. It forms compact bushes about 2 feet high 

 when fully grown, and is fully covered with clusters 

 of its rich, crimson-red flowers throughout the 

 season. It begins to bloom when in small pots 

 and is practically never out of bloom for the 

 balance of the season. Perfectly hardy, it re- 

 quires no winter care, and should improve each 

 year with good culture. The coloring is brighter 

 and more persistent than in its parent, the 

 "Crimson Rambler," of which it is a seedling. 

 The size of the clusters and the number of 

 flowers in each are the marvel of all beholders. 

 Its use is varied so as to render it invaluable. 

 As a bedding variety, to make a low, attractive 

 hedge, to border a walk, for planting in cem- 

 eteries, or for growing in pots in the house, it 

 stands alone and must find its way everywhere. 

 Remember it is hardy and perpetual flowering. 

 Price, 1st size, $1.00 each, $9.00 per doz. ; 2d 

 size, 75c. each, $7.50 per doz. ; 3d size, 40c. each, 

 4.00 per doz. (,all plants that will bloom).
