A Bed of Baby Rambler Roses. 



BABY RAMBLER AND POLYANTHA ROSES. 



A type of Roses which is very popular for bedding purposes. They form shapely, compact, bushy specimens about 18 inches 

 high, producing in great profusion from early in the season until severe frost immense trusses of small flowers. Pruning is not 

 necessary; simply remove the past season's flower stems. 

 Anchen Muller (P<,iik Babri Rambler). Large clusters of 



brilliant rose flowers; the edges of the petals are wavy, giving 



it a peculiarly graceful form. 



Cecile Brunner (77(6 Fairy Rose). A Polyantha variety 



with dainty double little flowers of perfect form, produced in 



many flowered graceful sprays; color a soft rosy-pink on a 



rich creamy- white ground. 

 Clothilde Soupert {Polyantha Rose). An old favorite, 



producing in clusters beautiful perfectly double flowers of a 



French-white, deepening to rosy-blush in the centre; very 



free-flowering and deservedly popular. 

 Ellen Poulsen. A very tine dark brilliant pink; large, full, 



sweet-scented; vigorous habit and most floriferous. 

 Ema Teschendorf!. A "sport" from the Crimson Baby 



Rambler, as bright as Gruss an Teplitz, the well-known 



Hybrid-Tea, which has been well described as the "Reddest 



of all red Roses-" 

 Katherina Zeimet (White Baby Rambler). Pure white 



flowers, showing the yellow stamens very prettily. A free 



and continuous bloomer. 



Louise Walter (Baby Tan.iendschon). Identical in color 

 to the popular climbing Tausendschon, a soft, tender shade of 

 pink; flowers IJ to 2 inches in diameter produced throughout 

 the season in trusses of 10 to 20 flowers each. 



Mme. Jules Gouchault. A vigorous grower, producing 

 long stems with erect panicles of 25 to 50 most perfectly 

 formed flowers of a bright vermilion-red shaded orange-red, 

 passing as they mature to a lively bright rose color. 



Mme. Norbert Levavasseur ( Crj;«so7j Baby Rambler). 

 Similar in color to the climbing Crimson Rambler. One of 

 the most popular. 



Mrs. Cutbush (Cerixe-pink Baby Rambler). Identical in. 

 color to the beautiful Lady Gay Rambler; always in flower. 



Orleans. One of the best; flowers of good size of brilliant 

 geranium-red, becoming suffused with rose as the flowers 

 mature, and large white centre; a very pretty color combina- 

 tion. 



Yvonne Rabier. A splendid white variety, with full double 

 flowers produced in great profusion; a variety, when once 

 known, is certain to become very popular. 



One each of the 



Price. Any of the above, strong two-year-old plants, 40 cts. each; $4.00 per doz.; $30.00 per 100. 



12 sorts for $4.00. 



CHINESE OR BENGAI. ROSES. 



An old favorite type which is as beautiful and sweet now as it was in the gardens of half a century ago, and which deserves as 

 great a popularity to-day as it had in years past. Compared with other Roses the flowers as well as the growth are small; but 

 where an abundance of bloom is wanted they are unequalled, especially so as they will flourish under soil and climatic conditions 

 in which the high-bred varieties will not thrive; splendid for massing, and hardy with slight protection. 



Hermosa. A well-known old favorite, bright double pink, 

 always in bloom. 



Charlotte Klemm. Fiery red, shaded with cinnabar and 

 blood-red, semi-double, of medium size and of great brilliancy 

 of color. 



Comtesse de Cayla. Very distinc*^ and rich in coloring, 

 coppery carmine shaded with orange and yellow. 



Strong two-year-old plants, 40 cts. each; $4.00 per doz.; $30.00 per 100. 



Queen's Scarlet, or Agrippina. 



very free; an old favorite. 



Bright crimson-scarlet. 



One each of the 4 varieties for $1,60. 



All Roses are supplied in itronK two-year-old plants only.
