J. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER, NJ.— ROSES 



HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 



With the exception of Rosa Rugosa, these are the hardiest of all Roses. They are of 

 vigorous, upright habit, with large leaves and very large, full, double, richly fragrant flowers, 

 which are produced in profusion in June and more sparingly in autumn. 



In order to obtain the finest flowers, prune severely in early spring, manure liberally and 

 keep the soil well cultivated. 



Heavy field-grown plants, each, 85c.; dozen. $8.50. From 5-inch pots, each, $1.00; dozen, 

 $10.00. 



BLACK PRINCE.— So dark a crimson, it 

 is almost black. The cup-shaped blooms are 

 large, full and freely produced. 



CAPTAIN CHRISTY. — The attractive 

 double flowers are a soft flesh color, deeper 

 toward the center. 



FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI (White Ameri- 

 can Beauty). — One of the finest, if not the 

 very finest, White Rose ever introduced. Its 



long buds and magnificent snow-white blooms, 

 with large saucer-shaped petals, are freely pro- 

 duced on strong, robust stems. 



PAUL NEYRON.— The largest of all rose 

 blooms. The delightfully scented flowers are 



GEN. JACQUEMINOT (Jack Rose).— An 



old variety that has not lost any of its popu- 

 larity. Its handsome blooms of velvety crim- 

 son are delightfully fragrant. 



GEO. AHRENDS.— The extremely large 

 flowers of this variety shade from bright car- 

 mine to delicate rose and are of delicious 

 fragrance. 



JUBILEE.— Practi(?ally an "everbloomer." 

 The long, beautiful buds expand into very 

 large double flowers which are velvety crim- 

 son. Truly a desirable sort. 



MAGNA CHARTA.— Bright rosy pink; ex- 

 tra large; very free bloomer. 



PRINCE CAMILLE DE ROHAN. — So 

 dark in color, is frequently offered as "The 

 Black Rose." Its large velvety crimson blooms 

 are indeed beautiful. Delightfully fragrant. 



HYBRID RUGOSA ROSES 



Price, either variety, in heavy two-year-old 

 plants, $1.00 each; $10.00 per dozen. 



CONRAD F. MEYER.— The blooms of this 

 remarkable rose, which are borne in lavish 



bright, shining pink, and are borne in great 

 quantities. . ^ 



profusion throughout the entire summer, are 

 a clear lively pink and very double. 



Although this, and the other Rugosa Hy- 

 brids, have proved perfectly hardy with us, 

 we recommend that a protection of loose 

 strawy manure or other light material be 

 placed around the bushes after freezing 

 weather and removed in early spring. 



SIR THOS. LIPTON.— Similar in all re- 

 spects to the above variety, excepting in color 

 of flowers, which are glistening white.
