CREAM OF 



■A-GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY. H.T. iMordigan.i Plant 

 Pat. 806. This is an outstanding new Rose. It is a sport of 

 Good News, witli flowers as handsomely formed but a line old- 

 gold color, flushed apricot at times. Best of all, it is a golden 

 Rose on a truly vigorous, well-branched plant with dense 

 foliage right down to the ground! For the plant retains the 

 sturdiness, shapeliness and leaf mass of its parent, all the more 

 remarkable in a yellow Rose. The plants bloom heavily and 

 continuously. Rated very high by the American Rose 

 Socictv during its first two vears of testing. $1.65 ea. ; 3 for 

 S4.35."

 wiii-brancluf! pl.int'-. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $4. 



A^GRANDE DUCHESSE CHARLOTTE. H.T. (Ketten.) 

 /^\ Plant Pat. //4. I ills Hose is a delightful new shade of 

 A<^S '^^^ ''* shown in the illustration. The beautiful, long, 

 ^^'*' streamlined buds are burnt-carmine and open to firm- 

 petaled blooms of a lovely begonia-rose, with the petals 

 artistically recurved. The plant is tall and naturally graceful 

 in gro\\'th. Blooms come singly on long stems, are especially 

 fine for cutting in the bud stage, opening more slowly than 

 w hen left on the bush. This is one of the Roses we like best 

 and we find that it is a prime favorite with others who have 

 it in their gardens. In color, form and natural grace, it is 

 like no other Ro^m . $1 .50 ea. ; 3 for $4. 



-A-HORACE McFARLAND. H.T. iMallerin.i Plant 

 Plant Pat. /30. Deep apricot-colored buds open 

 rich buff-salmon, which changes slowly to a 

 pleasing coral-pink. Buds open slowly and tend 

 to come in constant succession. The flowers are large, 

 with 40 to 45 petals, that are also large, firm and long 

 lasting. Strong stems hold the long, tapered buds firmly 

 upright, well above the leathery foliage, making it excel- 

 lent for cutting. Flowers spicily fragrant. Upright, com- 

 pact plants that improve with age. A "front-row" Rose, un- 

 surpassed for beautiful exhibition form and glorious color. 

 Blooms come singly, open perfectly, and are endearingly long 

 lasting in everv kind of weather. $1.65 ea.: 3 for $4.35.
