HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES, continued 



*Magna Charta ^ sturdy, dependable Rose and a great favorite 



— 1 for forcing under glass. True rose-pink in its 



clearest shade, the bloom breaks forth freely in enormous, heavy trusses 

 which bend the heavy canes to the ground unless they are secured to stakes. 

 The flowers are very large, cup-shaped, and very full, with the rich, spicy 

 fragrance of the old-time Roses. One of the hardiest of Roses, though its 

 foliage requires the usual attention. $1 each. 



*Mrs. John Laing. ^ Hybrid Perpetual that is truly perpetual, 



1 — producing a succession of flowers all summer, 



until late in the fall. An erect plant, of strong growth, but not as gigantic as 

 some of the others. It is very hardy and its medium-sized flowers of cup-like 

 form are very sweet. It is a lively shade of sohd pink, and so distinct in 

 form that it can never be mistaken. A rather tame Rose, perhaps because it 

 is so good. $1 each. 



-y^p^ijl ISJevron ^^^ Humpty-Dumpty of Roses which has been a bit 



^ 1 carelessly put together, but it is of mammoth size 



and always sure to make a magnificent show of rosy color. It has been widely 

 planted, and also is often sold in pots at Easter-time. Its great size and sweet 

 fragrance are its strongest points. Quite formless when fully open, and its 

 bright pink color is apt to get muddy quickly. It is hardy, healthy as most, 

 and inclined to bloom in the fall. A strong, dependable Rose that cannot be 

 disregarded. $1 each. 



*Ulrich Brunner (Illustrated on page 57.) A healthy-growing bush 



1 of moderate size, buried in June beneath thumping 



big blooms of bright cherry-red. It is one of the most extravagantly blooming 

 Roses, and a plant in the height of the season is a thing of unequaled splendor. 

 One of the fmest of the Hybrid Perpetuals for cutting, as its flowers are not 

 too compact to open well in the house and are intensely fragrant. Requires 

 only the usual protection against mildew. Ideal for training as a pillar Rose, 

 and a little shade will do it good. $1 each. 



*MARGARET DICKSON. A magnificent white Rose with a pale pink center. 

 The petals are of great substance and fine shape. A free bloomer, but seldom 

 flowers after June. It is quite hardy, but requires the usual disease protection. 

 White Hybrid Perpetuals are scarce — this is one of the few good ones left of 

 what used to be an extended list. $1 each. 



*PRINCE CAMILLE DE ROHAN. Dark purple-crimson, and doubtless the 

 nearest black Rose in commerce. This is the "Black Rose of Russia" that used to 

 bloora in the Imperial Gardens, but should not be confused with "Black Prince," 

 an inferior Rose. Prince Camifle has larger flowers, intensely fragrant, freely 

 borne in June. Fohage not disease proof. It does weH in partial shade, where the 

 magnificent color of its flowers has protection from the sun, and needs extra care 

 to produce the finest blooms. $1 each. 



*Vick's Caprice. A queer pink Rose, often striped with red and white. The 

 flowers are of good form, very fragrant, and freely produced. Valued as an oddity. 

 $1 each. 



^J^OSES: $1 each; lo for $<f.oo: $8o.oo per loo 



25 or more at 100 rate. For delivery cost, see page 98
