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 (Pink Baby Rambler). Large clusters of 

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

 it a peculiarly graceful form. 



Cecile Brunner ( The Fairy or Sweetheart Rose). A Poly- 

 antha 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. 



Echo. A new soft tender pink variety of the style of Baby 

 Tausendschcen, but of much greater vigor, producing on well- 

 established plants shoots 2A feet high which are much branched, 

 frequently forming trusses of flowers over 12 inches in diam- 

 eter. 60 cts. each; ,?6.00 per doz.; ?40.00 per 100. 



Ellen Poulsen. A very fine brilliant pink; large, full, sweet- 

 scented; vigorous habit and most floriferous. 



Erna Teschendorff. 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." 



Price. Any of the above, strong two-year-old plants, 40 cts. each; 



13 sorts for $4.50. 



Qeorge Elger. Coppery golden-yellow before fully expanded, 

 opening up a pale-yellow, particularly handsome in the bud 

 state, a splendid companion to Cecile Brunner the Fairy or 

 Sweetheart Rose. 



Louise Walter (Baby Tausendscham). Identical in color 

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

 pink; flowers 1£ to 2 inches in diameter produced throughout 

 the season in trusses of 10 to 20 flowers each. 



Mine, 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 {Crimson Baby Rambler). 

 Similar in color to the climbing Crimson Rambler. One of 

 the most popular. 



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

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



Orleans. One of the best; flowers of large 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. The best white Baby Rambler, with full 

 double flowers produced in great profusion; a variety, when 

 once known, is certain to become very popular. 



.00 per doz.; $30.00 per 100. One each of the
