STAR ROSES 



•RED RADIANCE. H.T. Cerise-red. A sport of 

 Radiance, it has the same form, habit of growth, 

 fragrance, and healthy foliage. The difference is in 

 the color, which is an even shade of cerise-red. $1.15 

 ea. ; 3 for $3. 



•ROME GLORY. H.T. Plant Pat. 304. Rose-red. 

 This tall-growing variety holds its noble buds and 

 mammoth, long-lasting, fragrant blooms erect on 

 long, strong stems. $1.50 ea.; 3 for $4. 



• SIGNORA. H.T. Plant Pat. 201. Bicolor. 

 Long, tapering buds of brownish orange are followed 

 by great blooms of mandarin-orange and salmon. 

 Praised from Maine to California. $1.35 ea.; 3 for 

 $3.50. 



• SNOWBIRD. H.T. White. Snow-white from the 

 bud until the petals fall. For bedding it is unsur- 

 passed. The fragrant, pure white flowers are per- 

 fectly formed, full petaled and are often 4 inches 

 across. $1.15 ea.; 3 for $3. 



•SOEUR THERESE. H.T. See color page 13. 

 Buttercup-yellow. This is the most astonishing 

 variety in the yellow class, for it blooms in candela- 

 bras (not clusters) of from 5 to 15 flowers, forming on 

 top of sturdy canes that hold the blooms erect. Each 

 flower is fine for cutting as it comes on a wiry stem 

 from 6 to 8 inches in length. Each perfectly formed, 

 long-pointed yellow bud is richly marked with carmine 

 but the open blooms are clear yellow. $1.15 ea.; 

 3 for $3, 



•Talisman. $1.15 ea. 



•TALISMAN. H.T. Multicolored. Free in bloom. 

 At its gayest it is a glorious combination of orange, 

 yellow, and rose-red. It is one of the finest of all 

 garden Roses for cutting, with its choice, distinctive 

 form. The fragrant flowers are much more highly 

 colored in autumn, when they simply eclipse the 

 finest florists' blooms, so it is worth while pinching 

 out all midsummer buds to get more bloom in the fall. 

 $1.15 ea.; 3 for $3.

 plants are remarkably free in bloom. $1.25 ea.; 

 3 for $3.35.
