Hardy Ever=Blooming Rose, 



Admiral Schley 



This was raised by Mr. 

 John Cook of Baltimore and 

 named by him in honor of 

 one of Maryland's favorite 

 sons. This is essentially a 

 Rose for the garden, iron- 

 clad in its resistance to all 

 diseases, particularly mil- 

 dew, that scourge of out- 

 door Roses in this country. 

 It blooms in the most luxurious abundance and even in the 

 hottest weather the flowers remain double. This variety 

 is certain to be a great favorite. A large bed of it planted 

 in the Pan-American grounds at Buffalo was a mass of 

 bloom all season. (See cut.) 



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

 each, S3. 00 per doz.; 3d size, 15c. each, §1.50 per doz. 





| Splendid, New Red Rose, " RICHMOND." 



This splendid, new red Rose was raised by E. G. Hill & Co. 

 and is the most valuable addition to the list of winter-blooming 

 Roses sent out in years. It blooms as freely as the freest of 

 the Monthly Roses, very easy to grow, splendid foliage, long 

 stems. The color is magnificent, a rich scarlet-crimson, the 

 most vivid and rich yet produced in a Hybrid Tea Rose. Un- 

 like other red forcing Roses, it does not "blue" with age. 



Price, 1st size, $1.00 each; 2d size, 75c. each; 3d size, 50c. 

 each, $4.50 per doz. 



NEW -SSSSU Rose, Rosalind Orr English 



A new Hybrid Tea Rose, a seedling from "Mme. Chatenay"; 

 unapproached in brilliancy of color, a brilliant cerise-pink, 

 much the shade of a good Lawson Carnation ; sends up splendid 

 canes and plenty of them; the bud is very full, beautifully 

 formed, of medium size, but opens into a fine large flower; 

 one of the most lasting of Roses, and bound to be a favorite 

 with careful buyers on this account. Received certificate of 

 merit from the Horticultural Society of Chicago. 



Price, 1st size, $1.00 each; 2d size, 75c. each; 3d size, 50c. 

 each, $4.50 per doz. 



Beautiful, New Pink Rose, " WELLESLEY." 



This grand Rose, seedling of 1900, raised by Alex. Mont- 

 gomery, "Liberty" crossed with "Bridesmaid," retains the 

 form of "Liberty" with the fullness of "Bridesmaid" and in 

 color is a beautiful shade of pink, the outside of the petals 

 being bright and clear, with a silvery reverse. It is a very 

 vigorous, healthy grower, carrying the flowers on long, stiff 

 stems, which are clothed with heavy, dark green foliage. It is 

 remarkably free flowering and possesses unusually fine keeping 

 qualities. 



Price, 1st size, $1.00 each; 2d size, 75c. each; 3d size, 50c. 

 each, $4.50 per doz. 



A Grand Ever=Blooming Rose, Mpc R D Cflflt 



In determining the usefulness of a Rose, the consti- 

 tution, the habit and the continuity of the flowering of 

 the variety, as well as the size, shape and color of the 

 flowers, must be taken into consideration. "Mrs. B. R. Cant," 

 on which the Floral Committee of the Royal Horticultural 

 Society, of England, conferred an award of merit, measures up to 

 the highest standard. This variety is remarkable for its robust 

 habit and the profuse manner in which it blooms from early in the 

 summer until the autumn is well advanced. The flowers are of 

 medium size and of a beautiful deep rose color on the outer petals, 

 quite red in some cases; while the inner petals are soft silvery-rose, suf- 

 fused with buff at the base. It is essentially a garden Rose, and as such 

 it can hardly fail to attain a high degree of popularity. (See cut.) 



Price, 1st size, 75c. each, 

 $7.50 per doz.; 2d size, 50c. 

 each, $4.50 per doz.; 3d size, 

 30c. each, $3.00 per doz.
