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



HARDY ROSES 



When requested to do so, we will gladly ship Roses by parcel post provided cash is sent 

 for postage as per table. 



All Roses offered in this catalog are strong plants, some two and some three years old; 

 we do not consider it good business to offer one year old or younger plants which, unless given 

 the very best of care, almost always prove disappointing. 



HARDY EVERBLOOMING ROSES 



Again we offer our patrons not only an unusually large quantity of strong "own root" 

 Everblooming Roses, but our assortment of varieties is, we think, the finest we have ever had 

 the pleasure of offering. 



This collection of varieties, we have endeavored to make up, not only choosing the most 

 beautiful sorts but also with regard to their hardiness. Even so, it is best to give all varieties 

 some protection in winter. A light covering of strawy manure is all that is necessary. An 

 equally efficient protection may be obtained by Reaping soil, say, eight inches deep about 

 each plant, removing same, of course, in early spring. 



The shock to Everblooming Roses is so great when taken from the nursery row and 

 planted in the garden that several weeks or even months are required for them to recuperate. 

 Because of this, we grow all our roses of this class in pots. In shipping these large sturdy 

 plants, they are taken from the pots in which they are growing and are sent with all their roots 

 and the earth about them undisturbed. When thus shipped and planted in their new homes 

 they continue to grow and flower without check. 



Price for two and three year old plants from five inch pots, each, $1.00; dozen, $10.00; 

 100, $75.00. 



ALEXANDER HILL GRAY.— Deep lemon 

 yellow and not inclined to fade out as the 

 bloom expands. The large flowers, of perfect 

 form, are freely produced on strong growing 

 plants. 



BLUMENSCHMIDT.— Clear citron-yellow. 



outer petals edged with rose. A strong, ro- 

 bust variety and one of the best. 



ETOILE DE FRANCE.— A grand deep red 

 rose. The flowers which appear all summer, 

 are large, full, velvety crimson and richly 

 fragrant. 



EXpiLE DE LYON.— Golden yellow and 

 what is unusual in a yellow rose, it is a healthy 

 strong grower. Hardy and in all ways a fine 

 sort. 



FARBENKONIGEN (Queen of Colors).— 



Its long pointed buds open to bright pink and 

 rosy crimson flowers which are overlaid with 

 a satiny silvery sheen. A free bloomer. 



GRUSS AN TEPLITZ.— Produces in great 

 rnasses, during the entire summer, clusters of 

 vivid, dazzling, fiery crimson flowers. A strong 

 growing variety, attaining a height of from 

 four to five feet. As a bedding rose it is 

 superb. One of the hardiest sorts. 



HELEN GOOD.— Similar in all respects to 

 the splendid variety, Maman Cochet, but of 

 an entirely distinct color, it being a delicate 

 pink, with each petal shaded deeper. 



JONKHEER J. L. MOCK.— This is, indeed, 

 a marvelously beautiful variety. Its very large 

 blooms are clear bright pink with the reverse 

 of each petal light rose or creamy white. A 

 strong growing beautiful s6rt. 



KAISERIN AUGUSTA VICTORIA. — A 



continuous bloomer, producing quantities of 

 snowwhite flowers from June until frost. 



KILLARNEY BRILLIANT.— So superior 

 to its parent, Killarney, that we have discarded 

 that sort. Of better color, being a deeper pink 

 and with nearly double the petalage. 



LADY HILLINGDON.— One of the most 

 popular varieties producing yellow flowers. It 

 is free flowering, but like most of the yellow 

 flowered varieties is of rather weak growth. 



MAMAN COCHET.— The finest and best 



pink rose for blooming out r,f (b.i.rs. The buds 

 are very large, handsome and of pointed form; 

 the flowers are full and fine, flesh pink with 

 saffron at base of petals. Plant of strong 

 growth, very hardy and a free bloomer (bloom- 

 ing all the time).
