 bloomer.

KAISERIN AUGUSTE VICTORIA. This is one of the most 

 beautiful roses grown. Its extra-large, exquisitely formed flow- 

 ers are borne singly on strong upright stems, making it very 

 popular as a cut-flower. Buds are long and the flowers very 

 full, deep, and sweet-scented. Color, pure white, slightly tinged 

 lemon-yellow, giving a rich cream effect and very lovely. 



Climbers and Ramblers. 

 Strong field grown plants, 35 cents each; $3.00 per 10. 



AMERICAN PILLAR. If ever there was a rose constituted 

 to stand the trj'ing conditions of our American climate, we 

 have it in this unique, hardy, free-blooming climber. It will 

 thrive in poor soil as well as in rich, and insists on growing 

 vigorously. It has stout, thick, curving branches, rather thorny, 

 but furnished with an abundance of glossy dark green leaves. 

 Each stem has 9 leaflets instead of the usual 7 or 5. a kind of 

 double supply, which gives the bush a very rich effect. It is 

 one of the first to start growth in the early spring, and here 

 holds its leaves of lively green till far past Thanksgiving Day, 

 and it is seldom troubled with insects. It begins blooming here 

 early in June. Single flowers of rich, rosy pink approaching 

 brilliant carmine, just a glint of white in the center, and long 

 stamens of beautiful golden yellow. The blossoms — four to six 

 layers deep — are arranged in large-flowered clusters all over the 

 plant. A tremendous grower, with its thick vigorous canes, it 

 is without doubt one of the most valuable single climbing roses 

 in existence and is unsurpassed for planting singly or as a 

 hedge. In the autumn it is again a brilliant show of color with 

 its pretty clusters of bright red seed-hips which remain on the 

 bush until well into Avinter. 



DOROTHY PERKINS. Rambler. June and July this one 

 produces immense trusses of delightful pink flowers. Hardiest 

 of all roses, makes 20 to 30 feet runners in one season. 



DOROTHY PERKINS WHITE. Same as Pink Dorothy, ex- 

 cept flowers are snow white. 



CRIMSON RAMBLER. Deep crimson flowers in immense 

 trusses, very hardy and extensively planted. 



EXCELSEA. Same as Dorothy Perkins except flowers are a 

 brilliant red. 



HIAWATHA, Bears large clusters of single flowers of in- 

 tense deep crimson, with the petals shading to pure white at 

 the base; bright, effective, and useful for planting in masses. 



WICHURAIANA. The Hardy Single White Memorial Rose. 

 Will grow in sun or shade, poor ground or rich. Single blos- 

 soms, pure satiny white with bright golden stamens in center. 

 It is especially useful for growing on embankments, as it grows 

 close to the ground, rooting where the branches touch, so that 

 in time it forms a thick, impenetrable mat. 



GOLDFINCH. Buds golden yellow, opening flowers changing 

 to white, semi-double. Growth very vigorous, climbing. 



MISCELLANEOUS BULBS, PLANTS, ETC. 



DASH E ENS. Belong to the same family as the Elephant 

 Ear, and resemble them somewhat but grow more upright; leaf 

 is rounder and of a much darker green in color. They like plenty 

 of water but will thrive where it is too dry for the Elephant 

 Ear. In the South, where they can have a warm, frostlesa 

 season of six months, they are grown in large quantities and 

 used as a substitute for the Irish potato. 15c each; 50c for 4: 

 $1.25 per dozen.
