SIR THOMAS LIPTON 
E have had this spiendid rose on trial for several years, and now take pleasure in recommending it as the finest 
Pure White Hybrid Rugosa Rose yet produced. It is a strong vigorous grower, making a handsome bush, 
4to 5 feet high, well covered with bright glossy green leaves, which shine as if varnished. The flowers are 8 to 4 
inches across, perfectly double and pure snow white. They are very fragrant and borne on strong upright stems all 
through the growing season. It is one of the Hardiest Roses in existence, and therefore particularly valuable for planting 
in cold climates and exposed localities where other roses do not thrive. It does well everywhere and can be depended on to 
make a strong handsome bush and produce plenty of large double pure white roses for several months every season. It is espe- 
cially recommended for yard, park and cemetery planting, because of its handsome appearance, perfect hardiness and entire 
freedom from insects, rust-and disease. It is undoubtedly the Finest Pure White Hardy Hybrid Rugosa Rose yet pro- 
duced, and is certain to be a standard variety for many years to come.

New Hardy Iron Clad 
Ever-Blooming Rose 
NEW CENTURY 
HIS Magnificent New Rose is the result of a cross 
between the lovely Ever-Blooming Rose Clotilde 
Soupert and the Hardy Rosa Rugosa Alba; it 
originated here and was sent out by us with a beauti- 
ful colored plate which attracted wide attention, and it 
immediately took its place as a first-class standard variety. 
It is perfectly hardy and blooms at short intervals all 
through the Summer and Fail. The flowers are 8 to 4 inches 
across, perfectly full and double and borne in elegant clus- 
ters. The color is clear flesh pink with bright red centre 
and having allthe petals widely bordered with fine creamy 
white ; it is very sweet and has the delightful fragrance of 
the wild rose or sweet briar. It has been called the 
‘‘Tron Clad” Ever-Blooming Rose, for besides being 
perfectly hardy it is entirely free from the attacks of insects, 
rust or blight, and is a real iron-clad continuous blooming 
rose, entirely different from the old ever-blooming varieties, 
and having a different style of beauty. It sailed bo planted 
in good rich ground and kept well manured to induce vigor- 
ous growth and continuous bloom. 
PRICE Strong 1-year plants, 20 cts. each; 
larger. size, 25 cts., postpaid. Fine 
two-year bushes from pots or open ground, 35 cts. 
each. Extra size three and four-year bushes, cut
