Miscellaneous Roses of Great Hardiness 



F. J. GROOTENDORST 

 A Hardy Rugosa Rose 



HARDY HYBRID RUGOSA ROSES 



Price (except as noted), heavy two-year-old 

 plants, each, 75c; dozen, $7.50. 



Amelie Gravereaux — Carmine-red, full double, 

 very fragrant. One of the new and one of the 

 very choicest of the Rugosa Hybrids. The flow- 

 ers open as a rich carmine-red which turns to 

 deep American Beauty color as they mature. The 

 large flowers are unusually beautiful in the 

 partially opened bud. The Amelie Gravereaux 

 has a delightful fragrance. It blooms liberally 

 in June, but even more so in August and Sep- 

 tember. This is a hardy and thrifty bush of 

 beautiful foliage which makes a real attraction 

 as a shrub. We consider this new creation a 

 Rose "par excellence" rapidly winning favor. 

 Each, $1.25; dozen, $12.50. 



Conrad F. Meyer — An exceptionally vigorous 

 variety. The clear, silvery-rose flowers are very 

 large, quite double, and showy in the extreme. 

 They are borne on long, strong stems and are 

 highly fragrant. 



F. J. Grootendorst — Large clusters of bright or- 

 ange-red flowers borne throughout the season. 



New Century — Clear, flesh-pink, with deeper cen- 

 ter and creamy edges. Delightfully fragrant and 

 considered one of the finest Rugosas. 



Sir Thomas Lipton — This Van Fleet hybrid may 

 be termed the white form of C. F. Meyer. 



PINK 

 GROOTENDORST 



This variety is practically 

 identical with its parent, F. J. 

 Grootendorst, excepting that it 

 produces flowers of a Killarney 

 Pink color, while the parent va- 

 riety produces bright orange- 

 red flowers. Strong field-grown 

 two-year-old plants, each, $1.50; 

 dozen, $15.00. 



ROSA HUGONIS 



Spectacular in its exotic beauty. A many 

 branched shrub, growing 6 to 8 feet tall, 

 rearing slender sprays in all directions, 

 gracefully arching beneath loads of bright 

 yellow, single flowers, an inch and a half 

 in diameter. The flowers are borne on the 

 previous season's growth and appear very 

 early in the spring, before the foliage. 

 Later in the season, it throws up many new 

 branches of a beautiful deep red color, 

 which makes the shrub a garden attrac- 

 tion during the entire growing season. 

 Extra strong field-grown plants, each, 

 $1.25; dozen, $12.50. 



HARDY HYBRID ROSES 



Harrison's Yellow — One of the finest semi- 

 double, bright golden-yellow Roses. The flow- 

 ers cover the whole plant in early spring, and 

 are very fragrant. 



Soleil d'Or — Orange-gold and pink shaded flow- 

 ers of exceptional fragrance. 



Persian Yellow — Double, deep golden-yellow flow- 

 ers during late spring and early summer. 



Price, any of the above, each, $1.00; 

 dozen, $10.00. 



MOSS ROSES 



These have exceptionally heavy, almost leather- 

 like foliage, while the calix of each flower is sur- 

 rounded thickly with mossy sepals. Moss Roses 

 belong among the hardiest of the species, form 

 impenetrable hedges and are quite free bloomers, 

 while the flowers are delightfully fragrant.
