The Many-Colored Rose — bears Red, Pink and Yellow Roses on the same bush 



BEAUTE INCONSTANTE— This is a lovely, 

 new ever-blooming rose, which has the remarka- 

 ble property of bearmg different colored roses on 

 the same bush. Sometimes the flowers are dis- 

 tinctly striped and variegated, but frequently

 some being clear satiny pink, 

 some bright red, and others deep 

 yellow, with all intermediate 

 shades between, which, besides 

 being very beautiful are a great 

 curiosity. The colors and va- 

 riegations become more dis- 

 tinct and remarkable as the 

 plant becomes older and 

 stronger. It is a free and 

 constant bloomer. The 

 flowers and buds are of 

 good size and fine form, 

 highly valued for cutting 

 and wearing. 15 cts.
