* BLANCHE MALLERIN. H.T. 
Pat. 594. This is that rare beauty, a pure white, fra- 
grant Hybrid Tea Rose. The petals of the beautifully 
modeled blooms are as white as alabaster, with a live, 
satiny sheen, as appealing as an Easter lily, with the 
advantage that the Rose blooms for five months of the 
(Mallerin.) Plant 
year. The streamlined buds come erect on healthy, 
upright plants. These long buds open to beautifully 
formed, cup-shaped blooms 3% to 4 inches across. 
We have yet to find a white Rose to equal Blanche 
Mallerin in artistic beauty. Lovely for cutting. 
$1.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75. 
XBOUDOIR. HT. Page 7. @) (F. Meilland.) 
An unusual, two-toned flower, large and very full, with 
a strikingly luxurious look. ‘The novel coloring i is a 
rich, radiant Tyrian-rose on the inside of the petals 
and velvety creamy white on the reverse. The great, 
fragrant blooms come on rigid, upright stems. A de- 
cided novelty that makes a sensational showing any- 
where. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75. 
* BRIGHT WINGS. H.T. (Mallerm.) This is a 
Rose which glows with color—a rosy burnt-orange 
that makes one think of burnished copper. The firm, 
scalloped petals arch back as the flower ages, shining 
like the wings of some brilliant tropical butterfly. 
The open blooms are large, 4 to 5 inches across, but 
are never heavy looking. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75.

glowing rose. A Rose which is always beautiful 
and does well in all parts of the country. Vigor- 
ous, disease-resistant and free-blooming. $1.50 
ea.; 3 for $3.75. 
%*KORONET. H.T. (2) (Mallerin.) Plant

yellow buds, shaded with orange, appear lovely, 
5-inch, intense yellow flowers of cactus form, 
much admired by Rose connoisseurs. The flowers

tracts much attention in a garden, and a vase of 
Koronet with snowy linen and silver on a 
dining-room table its most delightful. $1.50 ea.; 
3 for $3.75.

CREAM OF 
*CRIMSON KING. H.T. () 
(Kordes.) Plant Pat. pending. This 
Is a worthy addition to the list of best 
red Hybrid Teas, very fragrant and 
a deep, brilliant crimson. It combines

W especially fine as they mature and

ings on the firm petals. When cut in

long time indoors and will fill a room 
with their delightful Damask Rose 
fragrance. A new thrill for the lover 
of red Roses. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $3.75.

comments from those who have tried it. Beautiful

shading from coral-pink to silvery salmon, and pro- 
duced in unusual abundance. The foliage is also re- 
markably good—leathery, bluish green ‘and disease- 
resistant. $1.25 ea.; 3 for $3.15.
