SELECT HARDY ROSES 



No garden is complete without roses. It was my intention to offer a complete list of 

 Hardy Roses with descriptions, but I find my space so limited I can name but a few of th« 

 choicest varieties with brief notes only. 



The plants are all too large to send by mail.

HARDY EVERBLOOMING ROSES. 



Especially useful for planting in beds and 

 borders. They are more graceful in habit 

 than Hybrid Perpetuals, though not so strong 

 growing, and flower without interruption 

 from early June until late autumn. With 

 but few exceptions they are beautiful in bud, 

 delightfully fragrant and excellent for cut- 

 ting. Though hardy, a protection in winter 

 is beneficial. 



Aggrippine (Queen's Scarlet). — Velvety crim- 

 son; semi-double. 



Clothildc Soupert. — Pearly white with rosy- 

 lake center. Dwarf, compact habit, wonder- 

 fully profuse and constant in bloom. Very 

 hardy. 



Gruss an Teplitz. — Bright, rich scarlet sha- 

 ding to velvety crimson. Free bloomer and 

 very fragrant. 



Helen Gould (Baldwin). — Bright carmine; 

 pointed bud and large full flowers; fragrant. 



Hermosa. — Rosy pink; always in flower. 



Killarney. — Bright pink with yellow at 

 base of petal. Large pointed bud, sweetly 

 fragrant. 



La France. — Satiny pink; large, full and de- 

 lightfully fragrant. Very popular. 



Maman Cochet. — Bright, flesh pink with suf- 

 fusion of yellow at base of petals. Extra 

 large pointed bud. Strong grower and free 

 bloomer. 



Mozella. — Creamy white shading to apricot 

 at center. Similar to Clothilde Soupert ex- 

 cept in color of flowers. 



Mrs. DeGraw. — Deep, clear lively pink. 

 Beautiful in bud and when fully expanded. 

 Strong grower and very free bloomer. 



Sanguinea. — Rich, brilliant deep crimson. 

 Small, semi-double flowers so freely produ- 

 ced as to cover the ground with them. Very 

 hardy. 



White Maman Cochet. — Snow white, some- 

 times faintly tinged with blush. Large, long, 

 beautiful pointed buds. A strong grower 

 and a free bloomer. 



Strong two years old plants in 4 and 5 inch 

 pots, each, 25c; doz. $2.50; 100, $18.00. 



BABY RAMBLER ROSE. 



This new Rose is the most valuable Rose 

 of recent introduction. It is positively a per- 

 petual bloomer, beginning to display its large 

 clusters of double crimson flowers early in 

 June, and continuing without interruption 

 until frost. The plant is a compact grower; 

 never exceeding two feet in height. — On this 

 account, and by reason of its free and per- 

 petual blooming propensities, it is largely 

 used for bedding and for cemetery planting. 

 It is absolutely hardy. Well-rootei plants, in 

 3 inch pots, each 15c; doz. $1.50. Strong 

 plants in 4 and 5 inch pots, each, 25c; doz. 

 $2.50. Heavy field grown, each 35c; doz. 

 $3.50.
