“A Sensation of the Century” 
* THE BLUE ROSE ( Veilchenblau ) 
A new Rose from Holland that originated from Crimson Rambler. 
It bears semi-double flowers of medium size, in large bunches. The orig- 
inators describe the color as “reddish or rosy lilac when opening, changing 
to amethyst or metallic blue.”’ We have bloomed it inside and outside and 
find it as described and a very distinct novelty. Thoroughly hardy and a 
vigorous, tall-growing climber. Price, I-yr., 20c., postpaid; 2-yr., 45c.; 
Star size, 75c., by express. 
THE GREEN ROSE viridiflora) 
An Oddity—-the Very Thing for 
St. Patrick’s Day 
The wonderful Green Rose; a valuable 
curiosity. Petals of the flowers are same 
color as the leaves—a deep pea-green— 
a free bloomer. Price, I-yr., I5c., post- 
paid; 2-yr., 40c., by express.

 fectly hardy. It is of rich historic interest, dating 
back to the Wars of the Roses between the Royal Houses of York and Lancaster;

representing the white of the Yorkists and the red of the Lancastrians. Our
