Twelve Grand Hardy 
EVERBLOOMING 
Hybrid Tea Roses. 
This collection of Roses embraces the best of the Hybrid 
Tea type, several of them, varieties with which every lover .of 
Roses is familiar, and all of them thoroughly tested sorts which 
have been found most satisfactory for outdoor planting. 
They combine, in a large degree, the hardiness of the Hybrid 
Perpetual class with the free-lowering qualities of the Tea 
Roses, and withstand the winter with little or no protection. 
We especially recommend this collection of Roses to those 
who wish a supply of extra choice flowers for cutting throughout 
the summer and fall months. 
This beautiful Irish Rose was illustrated in colors in our Garden Book of 1905. We have distributed 
KILLARNEY many thousands of plants, and.the numerous reports received show that, with very few exceptions it has 
given universal satisfaction. Probably no Rose has ever taken such a prominent place so quickly as Killarney. Itis already one 
of the most popular of our Garden Roses, and also one of the leading varieties for winter cut flowers. 
It is perfectly hardy in this latitude ; in growth it is strong and robust, and as free-flowering as any rose we know. In color it 
is a sparkling, brilliant, imperial pink ; the blooms are large, the buds long and pointed, the petals very large and of great sub- 
stance, and just as handsome in the full-blown flower as in the bud form.
