■SELECT ROSES' 



Theresa (1909). 



A medium-sized semi-double flower, which in the bud or 

 half-expanded flower is admired by everyone. In the bud state 

 it is a deep orange-apricot, passing to madder-pink with carmine 

 shadings; as the flower expands it becomes veined with flesh- 

 pink, finally passing to silvery-pink. It is very free-flowering 

 and particularly pretty in color in the fall when the nights are 

 cool. Strong two-year-old plants, $1.25 each; $12.00 per doz. 



We will furnish one each 

 to ISO for §25.00.
