Gloire Lyonnaise 



Brilliant White Rose 



Great Roses are made all the greater by the pub- 

 licity given them. Frequently a variety of more than 

 ordinary worth is allowed to "waste its sweetness on 

 the desert air" because the public is unacquainted 

 with its merits. This is especially true of this great 

 variety. Makes strong, upright bush, with beautiful 

 deep green foliage ; practically thornless. While a 

 Hybrid Perpetual, yet like the Hybrid Tea Roses, bears 

 in greatest profusion large, pointed buds and massive 

 flowers on long, stiff, heavy shoots ; the open flower is 

 enormous, full, deep and double. Rich creamy-white, 

 passing, when open, to a pale shade of salmon-yellow, 

 deepest at the center. Absolutely hardy everywhere. 

 Prince Camilla de Rohan— Celebrated the world over 

 for its large, handsome, fragrant flowers, and the 

 freedom with which they are produced. The color 

 is a deep, rich velvety crimson, passing to intense 

 maroon, shaded black. 

 Vick's Caprice — Flowers large and slightly cup-shaped, 

 but full and deep ; petals thick and lasting, having 

 the ground color clear, satiny pink, distinctly striped 

 and dashed with white and bright carmine. Blooms 

 freely at short intervals during the whole season. 

 Marshall P. Wilder — Flowers large, semi-globular, full 

 and of good substance ; bright scarlet-crimson, richly 

 shaded with maroon. 

 Louis Van Houtte — Brilliant vinous crimson; large, 

 full and fragrant; an excellent sort and one that 

 we recommend most highly. 

 Mad. Alfred Carriere — Extra large, full flowers; very 

 double and sweet ; rich, creamy-white faintly tinged 

 with pale yellow. 

 Clio — A really grand Rose. On the order of Baroness 

 Rothschild. Recommended by expert growers as the 

 finest Rose of this type. Strong, vigorous grower, 

 hansome foliage. Flowers flesh color, shaded in the 

 center with rosy-pink; large, of fine globular form, 

 freely produced. 



Dingee Famous 



Hardy June Roses 



There is little question that Hybrid Per- 

 petual Roses, or "June Roses," as they are 

 sometimes called, are the most valuable of 

 all hardy plants. They are of vigorous, 

 upright growth, have large, bold flowers, 

 frequently measuring 5 to 6 inches in diam- 

 eter, and are deliciously fragrant. These 

 Roses will succeed in any locality and are 

 so hardy that they will live through the 

 severest winters with but a light protection 

 of leaves or coarse manure. Some of the 

 kinds do not bloom until the second year, 

 but, when fully established, tliey all bloom 

 freely at the usual time, early in the sea- 

 son. The Hybrid Perpetuals will stand 

 hardship and neglect, but give much better 

 results with good cultivation and rich soil. 

 Always plant in open ground, as these 

 Roses are not suitable for house culture. 

 Our collection of Hybrid Perpetuals is by 

 far the best in the country. The plants we 

 send out are strong and hearty and on own 

 roots. Fall is the most suitable time for 

 planting these. 



Prices of all Roses in this section, except 

 where noted: First-size, 30 cts. each; 4 for 

 $1.00. Two-year-old plants, 85 cts. each; 

 $8.50 doz. by express collect; 90 cts. each 

 by parcel post, prepaid, with soil on roots. 



J. B. Clark 



An intense deep scarlet-rose, shaded 

 blackish-crimson, color like the sheen of a 

 plum, often 7 inches in diameter and 5 

 inches deep. J. B. Clark has created a 

 great sensation throughout the United 

 States and Europe. A wonderfully strong 

 and upright grower, exceedingly vigorous, 

 with splendid and heavy dark bronze-green foliage. 

 The glory of the plant is in its flowers, however, as 

 they are extraordinary in size, full and double, wonder- 

 fully fragrant, of great depth, and borne freely from 

 the flrst year, on long, stiff stems. This Rose has 

 proven hardy, even in Canada, and a genuine treat 

 is in store for everyone who plants it. We have a 

 large stock of own-root plants, all in splendid condition.
