STAR GUIDE TO GOOD ROSES 



Everblooming Star Roses, continued 



,y 



Surville. Splendid for cutting 



• ROSE HILL. H.T. Pink. A marvelous im- 

 provement over Columbia, of which it is a 

 sport. All the good features of Columbia have 

 been retained, and it seems to have corrected the 

 fault of bull-nosing in unfavorable weather. Very 

 large, long-pointed buds open to full, double 

 blooms which, when fully open, are imbricated 

 but not flat. The color is a brilliant pink that 

 does not blotch. Fragrant. The long cutting 

 stems are nearly thornless. Foliage good. $1.25 

 each. 



*SOUV. D'ALEXANDRE BERNAIX. H.T. 

 Maroon. A large crimson-maroon Rose, full and 

 globular, deliciously perfumed, two or three 

 together, on long stems above the bush, long 

 lasting, and does not blue. The plant is medium 

 in height, bushy, well covered with dark green 

 foliage. Full of activity, it blooms con- 

 tinually. In our novelty trial-grounds 

 it was a surpassingly good red Rose. 

 $1.25 each. 



*SOUV. DE CLAUDIUS PERNET. ^Bi 



Pernet. Sunflower-yellow. See descrip- 

 tion and illustration in color on page 28. 



• SOUV. DE GEORGES PERNET. 



Pernet. Oriental red. See description 

 and illustration in color on page 12. 



• SUPERB. H.T. Silver -pink. The 

 buds are long and pointed. Blooms large, very 

 double, and soft silvery pink in color. As a rule, 

 the flowers come singly on erect, powerful stems 

 and keep a long time when cut. A "superb" Rose 

 among the more delicate shades. $1 each. 



• SURVILLE. H.T. New. Cerise-pink. See il- 

 ustration. Vigorous, upright grower, with the 

 robustness and hardiness of a Hybrid Perpetual 

 and the frequency of bloom of a Hybrid 

 Tea. Bloom large and full, clear cerise- 

 pink, globular, and scented. Long, stiff 

 stems for cut-flowers. $1.50 each. 



• SYRACUSE. H.T. New. Crimson. See 

 in color on back cover. Description, page 

 30. $5 each. 



, : *TALISMAN. Pernet. Multicolored. See 

 description on page 30. $1.50 each. 



•THE GENERAL. H.T. Crim- 

 ' son. See illustration. True to its 

 title, The General is a leader of 

 the red Roses, deserving that 

 qualification by the beauty of its 

 color and form, and delightful 

 perfume. It is reminiscent of the 

 old hundred-petaled Roses. The 

 plant is low-growing but very 

 vigorous and becomes literally 

 covered with beautiful, blood-red, 

 full flowers. $1.25 each. 



•VLLLE DE PARIS. Pernet. Buttercup-yellow. 

 See illustration in color on page 6 and descrip- 

 tion on page 7. 



•WESTFIELD STAR. H.T. A white Ophelia 

 with a lemon sheen. When the flowers open, the 

 petals recurve back, quill fashion, and form a 

 regular star, hence its name. $1 each. 



•WILLOWMERE. Pernet. Color is salmon- 

 pink, overcast with light orange and lightened at 

 the base with just a suspicion of gold. $1 each.
