 nary yellow with ^center shading to peachy pink. One

 buds." Price, 15c. each; larger size, 20c, postpaid. Two- 

 year size, 35c, by express. 



No. 2. *PINK MAMAN COCHET— This superb Rose is 

 well known as a queen among Roses; one of the best 

 and most beautiful varieties ever grown, and quite hardy. 

 The flowers are of enormous size, very full and of great 

 depth and substance. Color, rich coral pink, elegantly 

 shaded with rosy crimson; has broad, thick, shell-like petals 

 and makes superb long pointed buds; immense bloomer, 

 continues loaded with buds and flowers the whole season. 

 Deliciously sweet and a hardy, vigorous grower. It ranks 

 among the very finest hardy ever-blooming Roses. Has 

 no superior and should be included in every collection.

No. 4. *NEW WHITE SOUPERT (Schneekopf)— Exam- 

 ine our color illustration of this beautiful white flower and 

 then imagine a thickly branched bush loaded full of such 

 flowers. That is what you may expect from Schneekopf; 

 the same vigorous habit of growth as Clotilde Soupert and 

 almost never without bloom. The blossoms open perfectly 

 showing beautiful cupped shaped petals of waxy white 

 and sometimes tinged flesh pink. Price, 20c each; larger 

 size, 25c each, postpaid. Two-year plants, 40c, by exp. 



No. 5. *DEAN HOLE (H. T.)— The late Dean Hole was 

 widely known as an enthusiastic lover of Roses and as 

 author of "A Book About Roses" now in its 14th edition. 

 (See page 130.) We believe he has been fittingly honored 

 in a Rose worthy to bear his name. The flowers of the 

 Rose Dean Hole are large, of great substance and fine form; 

 color, silvery carmine shaded salmon, absolutely distinct 

 and by far the finest in its way of color. It was recently 

 voted by a large majority of representative Rose growers 

 in England to be one of the three most popular Roses in 

 that country. Price, one-year size, 25c each, postpaid. 

 Two-year size, 50c, by express.
