The color is vivid scarlet crimson, and the flowers 
are marvels of beauty; large, bold and of splendid 
substance. It has a strong, disease-resisting consti- 
tution, makes a rapid growth and throws up a 
profusion of canes from the roots and is always 
blooming. 
HOOSIER BEAUTY. This beautiful Rose is fra- 
grant as Richmond; has more petals, a stiffer 
stem, a texture like velvet. In color, glowing 
crimson scarlet, with darker shadings. The bud

and opens into magnificent bloom, quite dazzling 
in its velvety brilliance.

blooming of this class. Color a solid, brilliant 
scarlet. Profuse bloomer, strong, sturdy grower.

strong and robust grower, hardy in every locality 
and continually in bloom. Every lover of Roses

OPHELIA. The color is one so difficult to describe 
that any description can only be a partial one, and 
gives but a faint idea of the superb beauty and 
richness of the shades. Salmon-fiesh, shaded 
with rose. Buds of unusual attractiveness, open- 
ing full and double. Habit excellent, growth 
strong, produces flowers on long stems, well up 
above the foliage, and in great profusion all

Radiance

which originated a few miles from West Grove.

Conn., gardens. The flowers are a beautiful blend- 
ing of shades of carmine-rose, with opal and 
coppery reflections. It is of splendid, sturdy growth, 
constantly in bloom and is bound to become one 
of the leading garden Roses. We cannot say too 
much in its praise. 
CRIMSON QUEEN. Owing to its rich coloring 
this is a wonderful garden or bedding Rose. 
There is no color that produces the show that a 
good crimson does. The color is a rich, bright, 
velvety crimson. A strong, vigorous, upright 
grower; flowers large and full, a great garden 
Rose as it is always in bloom; extremely hardy 
and produces a magnificent bush in a short time, 
hardy everywhere. 
MAD. ABEL CHATENAY. Thissplendid Rose is one 
of the very best of its color—rosy-carmine, with 
darker shade. It does remarkably well in the 
open ground, has wonderfully beautiful flowers, 
which are full, deep and double. A very hardy 
Rose, Chatenay is a strong grower and free 
bloomer; has won friends wherever it has been 
planted. 
EDGAR M. BURNETT. Very large, full flowers 
of splendid form, with large flesh-colored petals 
tinted rose; an advance on the type of Rose of 
which the beautiful Alice Stanley is a representa- 
tive; one of the sweetest scented Roses in exist- 
ence. Awarded gold medal, National Rose 
Society of England. 
ETOILE DE FRANCE. ‘The strong, upright 
bushes have beautiful bronze-green foliage, which 
is not subject to insect attacks. The bushes are 
blooming constantly, producing large, massive, 
deep, full cup-formed flowers on magnificent, 
long, stiff stems. They are of truly glorious form 
and delightful fragrance, while the color is exquis- 
ite—a clear red of velvety crimson. 
MRS. AARON WARD. The color ranges from 
coppery-orange in the opening bud, changing to 
a golden-orange, and when the flower is fully 
open it is a lovely shade of pinkish fawn. Most 
vigorous in growth, every shoot producing a flower 
and clothed with dark, glossy green foliage, 
maroon on under side. 
MADAME SEGOND WEBER. One of the most 
beautiful Roses of recent introduction. The long, 
pointed buds are pink or salmon-flesh and when 
fully expanded are immense in size, full and 
double; as the flower opens it deepens until it 
fairly glows with its warm, deep pink. Highly 
fragrant. Very hardy and constantly in bloom. 
METEOR. Very few dark Roses compare with 
this in richness and depth in color, which is a 
rich, velvety crimson, shading very dark in the 
depths of the petals. As a garden Rose it has 
few equals, being particularly valuable for bedding 
on account of its sturdy growth and handsome 
foliage. 
SUNBURST. Buds long and pointed, borne 
singly on long, stout stems, opening full and 
double. A very vigorous grower, reddish bronze 
foliage. The color is superb orange copper or 
golden orange, with a deep orange center. This
