HARDY “IRONCLAD” RUGOSA ROSES 
; RY Hardy Rugosa Roses and their Hybrids seem just suited for our North American climate 
as they aresotough. They make dense, sturdy, compact bushes, 4 to 6 feet high and very ornamen- 
tal. Their dark, rich leathery foliage is oddly wrinkled, shiny and remarkably free from insect pests. 
Some bloom all Summer, others but once, but are followed in the Autumn with a profusion of beautiful 
orange red or crimson fruits. The plants are hardy as oaks, and do well in the most trying places; sea- 
shore, mountains or anywhere. Excellent for making hedges or planting on the lawn with shrubbery or 
in isolated groups. Rugosa Roses on their ‘‘Own Roots ’”’ are scarce, hence higher in price, but we offer 
only ‘‘ Own Root ”’ stock of these, because they give so much better satisfaction than ‘‘ Budded Plants,”’ 
and really cost lessin thelongrun. Jf you want something unique, appropriate and permanent, try some 
of these on your lawn. 
SIR THOMAS LIPTON 
(White Century) 
This grand rose requires no 
recommendation beyond the testi- 
-monials of those who have tried 
it. We consider it, without ex- 
ception, the best double white 
rose in its class; beautiful in foli- 
age, early and constant in bloom, 
of most vigorous habit, ironclad 
constitution, producing a bush 5 
or 6 feet high and as great in 
diameter. The original bush on 
our grounds (10 years old) is over 
20 feet in circumference and is 
seldom, if ever, without bloom 
from the 3rd week in May until 
November. 
PRICE—Good Mailing plants, 25 cts. 
each, larger size, 35 cts. each, poste 
paid. Two-year bushes, 50 and 75 cts. 
each. Extrathree-year bushes, $1.00 
and $1.50 each, by express.
