Hybrid Perpetual Rose 



AMERICAN BEAUTY. 



We can supply this beautiful forcing Rose in 

 strong two-year-old plants, but do not recommend it 

 for outdoor culture. While it is undoubted]] one of 

 the finest Roses when grown under glass under the 

 care of the specialist, it is, as a rule, worthless out ol 

 doors, and we only carry it in stock in the spring of 

 the year to supply customers who insist on trying it. 

 50 cts. each; $5.00 per doz. 



THE THREE IDEAL IRISH HYBRID -TEA ROSES shown in colors and offered on page 182 are superb.
