POUGHKEEPSIE OR DOUBLE HIAWATHA 



This is indeed a remarkable rose, and we feel safe in making the statement that it surpasses 

 all other roses of the rambler class. For many years past the Hiawatha has enjoyed the dis- 

 tinction of being the most brilliant and best of all the ramblers, surpassing in brilliancy- its 

 rival, the Crimson Rambler, and, unlike it, has mildew-proof foliage, but its flowers are sin- 

 gle. Po'keepsie is a sport of the Hiawatha, and possesses the same vigorous habit, profusion 

 of bloom and clean mildew-proof foliage of its parent, with perfectly double flowers in large 

 well-formed clusters fsee illustration), that are produced in such masses as to literally envelop 

 the entire bush. The color is a brilliant ruby carmine with white at the center of each flower. 

 In brief, Po'keepsie excels in the brilliancy of color and profusion of bloom, vigorous growth, 

 abundant clean foliage and hardiness — the most beautiful and best rambler rose. 



Large two-year plants in five-inch pots or from nursery row, each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50. 



Heavy three-year plants, from nursery, each, SI. 00; dozen, $10.00. 



SILVER MOON 



A unique and interesting variety. Its buds 

 are exquisite in form and color, and its many 

 semi-double flowers are very pretty and deco- 

 rative; opening a soft nankeen yellow and 

 quickly changing to pure silvery white, are 

 four inches or more in diameter and slightly 

 perfumed. It is a giant in growth, with abun- 

 dant, beautiful, large, glossy leaves. 



VONDEL 



An everblooming climbing rose. The flow- 

 ers are apple blossom pink, semi-double, 

 fragrant, and are produced in clusters through- 

 out the summer but are rather small. Similar 

 to the Empress of India or Apple Blossom 

 rose. 



WICHURAIANA, or MEMORIAL 

 ROSE 



A perfect trailer, hugging the ground closely. 

 It grows from ten to fifteen feet in a season, 

 and is densely clothed with dark green, glossy 

 foliage. The flowers are single, pure white, 

 with bright golden yellow stamens and with 

 the delightful fragrance of the dear old Banksia 

 Rose. 



WHITE DOROTHY 



A sport of the popular Dorothy Perkins and 

 like it in every way except its flowers are 

 white. Unfortunately, the flowers are not a 

 very clear white and must be seen in mass to 

 be effective — the individual flowers being of 

 indifferent attractiveness.
