•JOANNA HILL. H.T. See illustration. Yellow. 

 This perfectly formed Rose makes long, shapely buds 

 of orange-yellow that open to large, double flowers 

 with an orange center, paling to cream-color at the 

 edges of the petals. One of the finest Roses for cut- 

 ting. It does not bloom as freely as some but every 

 flower is a gem. Those who enjoy entering their best 

 blooms at Flower Shows should grow this Rose, as it 

 is heavy petaled and holds its form a long time when 

 cut. 75 cts. each.* 



•LITTLE BEAUTY. H.T. Plant Patent 149. Deep 

 pink. A new type Rose for garden decoration, com- 

 bining a mass color effect with quantities of deep pink 

 blooms borne in a continuous succession throughout 

 the season. $1 each; 3 for $2.50.

•LUNA. H.T. Moonlight-yellow. In the lighter 

 shades this Rose holds a foremost place for its per- 

 fection of form, healthy foliage, and fine, upright 

 growth. It makes an unsurpassed, deliciously fra- 

 grant cut-flower. The long, delicate yellow buds 

 open to a large bloom of moonlight-yellow which 

 ages to soft cream-white, and the petals hold their 

 shape for days. $1 each.* 



•KAISERIN AUGUSTE VIK- 

 TORIA. H.T. Cream-white. The 

 illustration shown here does not 

 fully convey the exquisite form 

 and beauty of this superb Rose, 

 which for over 40 years has been 

 considered one of the best white 

 varieties for form and also for fra- 

 grance. The plants are moderate 

 in growth. Its blooms come erect 

 on firm stems and as the petals are 

 heavy textured this Rose is re- 

 markable for its keeping qualities 

 when cut. It has just a touch of 

 lemon-color in the center, which 

 we think adds to its beauty. 

 75 cts. each.* 



•Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria 



•LADY ASHTOWN. H.T. Pink. Another continu- 

 ously satisfactory old Rose. The large, long-pointed 

 buds open to perfect carmine-pink blooms with a 

 golden underglow. Borne singly on long stems, they 

 are fine for cutting and last well in the house. For over 

 30 years Lady Ashtown has been unsurpassed in 

 its class and color, for both bedding and cutting. 

 75 cts. each.* 



•LEONARD BARRON. H.T. Salmon and 

 copper. Introduced by The Conard-Pyle Co. The 

 forerunner of a new strain of Roses. The blooms, 

 5 inches or over in diameter, and with myriads of 

 petals, make this one of the largest and fullest 

 everblooming Roses grown. The color is salmon, 

 copper, and shell-pink, well blended. Its fragrance 

 has been defined as red cedar. A wonderful 

 bloomer. Allow the great flowers to open on the 

 plant before cutting, as the buds will not open in 

 water. 90 cts. each.* 



•MRS. SAM McGREDY. H.T. See illustration. 

 Scarlet-orange. A beautiful new Rose, good enough 

 for the McGredys to name for present bead of the 

 family. It is already one of the most popular Roses in 

 England. Coppery scarlet-orange flowers, flushed dull 

 red and of fine form, make this a Rose to rave about. 

 It is double, with 30 to 40 petals, and richly fragrant. 

 Bushy plants with red canes, red thorns, and beautiful 

 reddish bronze foliage. Both plant and flower are 

 very distinctive. $1 each.*
