2-year size, 50 cents each $5.00 per dozen. 



LA FRANCE 



LA FRANCE (Tea). Delicate silvery rose, 

 shaded with cerise pink, often silvery pink, with 

 neach shading. An old favorite. 



KAISERIN AUGUSTA VICTORIA. A beau 

 tiful Rose, with elegant, large-pointed buds and 

 verv large, full double flowers ; color, delicate 

 creamy white ; deliciously fragrant. 



HELEN GOULD. One of the best hardy Ever- 

 blooming Roses ; in color a very soft, intense 

 carmine-crimson, with deeper shades in the depth 

 of the petals, much like American Beauty. The 

 profusion of its bloom is truly marvelous, every 

 shoot producing a flower. 



J. B. CLARK. This splendid new Rose is 

 placed by some cataloguers among the Hybrid 

 Teas ; but it is perfectly hardy, unusually large 

 and expresses in every way the characteristics of 

 the Remontant type. It is robust in growth, with 

 clean, heavy foliage. Flowers are large and 

 superbly constructed ; deep scarlet overlaid crim- 

 son. 



GEN. JACQUEMINOT. Familiarly known as 

 "the Jacq. Rose" or "Gen. Jacq." This is one of 

 the old reliable reds, as well and favorably known 

 as any variety of its class ; free blooming, rich 

 crimson scarlet. 



JONKHEER J. L. MOCK. The color is car- 

 mine on the outside and imperial pink on the 

 inside of the flower. The blooms are very large, 

 perfectly formed and highly perfumed. 



CRIMSON RAMBLER. The famous crimson- 

 clustered climber. Makes shoots eight to ten feet 

 long in a season. 



DOROTHY PERKINS. A beautiful shell-pink; 

 foliage finer, smoother and darker than Crimson 

 Rambler. This is unquestionably the thriftiest, 

 showiest and most practical of the older pink 

 climbers and trails its riotous clusters over more 

 verandas, windows and trellises .than any other 

 one variety. 



WHITE DOROTHY. A beautiful white-flow- 

 ered counterpart of the pink Dorothy Perkins. 

 The vines are a sheet of white during their bloom- 

 ing season, and are especially valuable because 

 of rarity of good white Climbing Roses. 



BABY RAMBLER. The original dwarf form 

 of Crimson Rambler. The wonderful persistency 

 of its bloom makes it one of the choicest plants 

 for summer bedding, and as an edging to borders 

 of shrubs, roses or perennials it has no equal. 



BABY RAMBLER (Pink). Beautiful bright 

 pink. Blooms in masses, like the climbing Dorothy 

 Perkins Rose. 



BABY RAMBLER (White). Each branch bears 

 from 15 to 50 little creamy white flowers. 



CAN N AS 



CITY OF PORTLAND. Distinct among the 

 several really worth-while pink Cannas. Derived 

 from "Mrs. Alfred Conard." this new variety is 

 a deeper, warmer pink, holding its tone through 

 both hot and cool weather. 3% feet. 20 cents 

 each; $2.00 per dozen. 



FIREBIRD. A magnificent red Canna, the 

 trusses being very large, compact, distinctive, with 

 nicely rounded petals 2^4 inches and more wide. 

 Stalks are firm and upright, bearing their bur- 

 dens well above the foliage. The color is fast; 

 absolutely pure scarlet, with no suffusion, streaks 

 or blotches whatsoever. Height, 3 to 4 feet. 20 

 cents each : JS2.00 per dozen. 



HUNGARIA. 31/2 feet. Green foliage. Blush 

 pink with satiny sheen not unlike the color of a 

 Paul Neyron rose. The plant is a free, early and 

 continuous bloomer. It is the ideal pink bedding 

 canna; of strong, robust habit; carries its enor- 

 mous trusses high above the foliage. 20 cents 

 each; .$2.00 per dozen. 



KING HUMBERT. The grandest Canna ever 

 offered. Large, hear-shaped leaves of purple 

 madder brown over bronze, the dark ribs sharply 

 defined, crowned wih immense heads of orchid- 

 like flowers. Individual peals are of the largest 

 size; velvety orange-scarlet flecked carmine; rose 

 tinted at margin and base. 4 to 4i/^ feet. 15 

 cents each; .$1.50 per dozen. 



THE PRESIDENT. This magnificent red 

 Canna (introduced in 1918) was fittingly named 

 "The President." The fiowers are immense, 

 round, firm — often seven inches across — of extra 

 good quality and borne in the greatest profu- 

 sion. The color is unfading, pure, glowing scar- 

 let'/; foliage rich green. 4 feet. 30 cents each; 

 $3.00 per dozen. 



RICHARD WALLACE. A tall growing, wide 

 flowered, heavy trussed canary yellow — the largest 

 and best of its color; bleaches very little. 5 

 feet. 15 cents each ; $1.50 per dozen. 



WINTZER'S COLOSSAL. Without doubt the 

 largest flowered Canna to date, over eight inches 

 across. Strikingly vivid scarlet that retains its 

 brilliancy. 5 feet. 25 cents each; $2.50 per 

 dozen.

 of the above Cannas.
