Mrs. Henry Morse. Mr. McGredy, in first offering ___ . 



this novelty, stated that he has never offered a new / 



variety with greater pride. His own description follows. 

 "Its merits are so great that it stands quite by itself 

 among the many beautiful varieties of its class, the , 



most wonderful coloring, the most perfect shape and 

 form, together with its marvelous freedom of bloom- 

 ing and habit of growth, a combination ideal of per- 

 fection in a Rose. Rising from a ground work of soft 

 flesh-cream, the whole flower has a clear sheen of bright 

 rose, deeply impregnated and washed vermilion, with 

 clear vermiHon veining on the petals, which are really \ 



wonderful for depth, size, and substance; the largest and 

 most pointed of all Roses of its type; sweetly scented. 

 $3.50 each. 



Mrs. H. R. Darlington. Flowers creamy yellow, very large, fault- 

 less in shape and form, with very large petals. Growth free and upright.

chrome-yellow, with deeper yellow at base of petals.

The Queen Alexandra. A brilliant flower of intense 

 vermilion deeply shaded old gold on reverse of petals, 

 which spring from a pure orange base, one of the most remark- 

 able color combinations seen in Roses. The flowers are quite 

 full and when half blown are bewildering in their beauty, 

 delightfully sweet-scented. $2.50 each. 



Una Wallace. This Rose created quite a sensation at the National Rose 

 Society's Autumn Show. The color is quite distinct from any other Rose, 

 a beautiful soft, even toned cherry-rose without shading. In depth, forma- 

 tion, and substance it is faultless, every bloom coming perfect, and quite 

 full. It is one of the freest growers, and remarkably free flowering. 

 Sweetly perfumed. Price, $2.50 each.
