HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES, continued 
*XALFRED COLOMB. This good old Rose has been on the market for over 
60 years, and still holds front rank. The color is strawberry-red, with crimson- 
carmine reflexes. The flower is of good form, large and full. $1 each. 
*ANNA DE DIESBACH (Glory of Paris). Though introduced in 1858, this 
great Rose continues its justified popularity. Its extra-large, full, and very sweet 
flowers are a lovely shade of carmine-pink. The plant is vigorous and hardy, and 
blooms profusely in June. 
You can use this as a pillar Rose by tying the long canes to a stout post, or 
get another effect by bending these canes over like the handle of a basket, which 
will make the bloom-spurs shoot out along the top of the branches and produce 
lovely Roses. $1 each. 
_*XBARON DE BONSTETTEN. Distinct because of the dark velvety crimson 
color of its large, full, finely formed and delightfully fragrant flowers on plants of 
moderate growth. $1 each. 
*CLIO. The large, globular flowers are flesh-colored, deepening in the center 
to rosy pk. The plant is a strong grower and of great beauty when covered 
tes its lovely flowers. Makes a fine pillar Rose. (See Anna de Diesbach, above.) 
51 each. 
*GENERAL JACQUEMINOT. Still valiantly leading the old guard of the 
few remaining Hybrid Perpetuals, good old General ‘Jack’? has marched to 
victory in many lands. Standard of color for years, his clear red blooms are just 
as bright today as seventy years ago. The plant is very hardy, but needs quite 
careful attention in thimning and pruning if the best-formed fragrant flowers are 
wanted, but many people let it grow at will and make a big, brave bush that blazes 
like a bonfire with tts hundreds of bright red flowers in June. $1 each. 
If You Are Interested in Prize-winners, Plant ‘*‘Star’’ Roses 
Order No. 10685 June 5, 1925 
Our Garden Club Rose Show was yesterday, with professional judges, of course, and I carried 
off the cup for best specimen roses and three ribbons besides. They were all your Star Roses, too— 
now you see why I am eager to go ahead each year.—Mrs. J. M. S., Avondale, Cincinnati, Ohio. 
*Frau Karl Druschki. Universally acclaimed as the best white 
Rose in existence. It is pure snow-white. 
Its buds are unusually long for its class and are often shaded pmk, but 
they open into immense and perfectly double flowers often more than 4 
inches across, and with waxy petals that are very durable, but, unfortu- 
nately, scentless. If disbudded, the flowers which are allowed to mature 
will prove an immense satisfaction. The plant is a strong and vigorous 
grower, making branches from six to eight feet high in a season. It does 
best with but moderate pruning, and it has the admirable habit of bloom- 
ing almost continually, so that it is dependable for white Roses from early 
June until frost. Care should be taken to check its tendency to mildew. 
Many candidates for its place have appeared, only to increase the continued 
popularity of this great variety. $1 each. (See illustration on opposite page.)
