THE NOVELTIES 



^MIRANDY. H.T. (Lammerts.) Plant Pat. 632. 

 •fm^The illustration shows the superb form and 

 ^*^^^ glamorous coloring of this great new Rose. 

 The huge, 50-petaIed, deep crimson flowers open 

 slowly from exquisitely modeled, ovoid buds, often 

 long-pointed, and filled with rich, penetrating Dam- 

 ask fragrance. In hot, moist atmospheric conditions 

 the aging flowers turn to a pleasing, popular Du- 

 bonnet wine color. 



In our Rose-fields this marvelous Rose blooms 

 continuously from early in June throughout the hot 

 summer months and was blooming last year when 

 stopped bv hard frost. $1.50 ea. ; 3 for $4. 



*IViR3. PAUL R. BOSLEY. H.T. (Bosley.) 

 Plant Pat. 441. Among the new yellow Roses, 

 Mrs. Paul R. Bosley should not be overlooked. 

 An exhibition type, with high-centered blooms 

 held firm and erect above the dark, leathery 

 foliage. Fragrant. This is a clear yellow sport of 

 the magnificent Rose, Mme. Joseph Perraud. 

 $2 ea. ; 3 for $5. 



^NARZISSE. H.T. (Krause.) This is the most 

 superb maize-yellow variety that has yet appeared. 

 The blooms are a marvel for size and come from big, 

 streamlined buds of apricot-yellow which open to 

 massive flowers of maize-yellow. Sturdy, tall 

 plants with large, glossy foliage produce these great 

 blooms. A prize-winning exhibition Rose. $1.50 ea. - 

 3 for $4.

 A splendid new pink with superlative bud form. 

 Tall and vigorous. $1.50 ea. ; 3 for $4. 

 *TALLYHO. H.T. (Swim.) Plant Pat. Pending. 

 It takes this very newest Rose 

 to bring us the color that has 

 been named "old-rose." The blooms 

 are truly two-toned, the outside a 

 darker shade of the same rare color. 

 It holds its color remarkably, changing 

 only toward the center of the flower, the 

 petals there becoming uniformly of the lighter old- 

 rose tint. And what a plant! Great, long, strong, 

 reddish canes are topped with glorious bursts of 

 bloom in quantity at one time. Rich, full, spicy 

 fragrance is added to its unique color, beautiful form 

 and mass of bloom to make Tallyho this year's out- 

 standing Rose. $2.50 ea.; 3 for $6.75.
