Souvenir de Claudius Pernet. Most striking Sunflower- 

 yellow. Long pointed buds of exquisite shape and very large, 

 double, full, fragrant flowers. Vigorous and free growing, and 

 a continuous bloomer. 75c each; 17.50 per doz. 



Souvenir de Georges Pernet. Large, full, double, very shape- 

 ly, globular flowers. Oriental-red shaded yellow, passing to 

 cochineal-carmine at ends of petals. A vigorous variety which 

 flowers continuously. 75c each; $7.50 per doz. 



Souvenir de H. A. Verschuren. Beautiful long pointed buds 

 and very large, full, double, shapely, fragrant flowers of a rich 

 apricot-yellow with lighter edges. 75c each; $7.50 per doz. 



Talisman 



Talisman. One of the most popular Roses either as a cut 

 flower or for the garden. A remarkable color combination. 

 The long pointed buds are bright yellow. As the petals unfold 

 they develop into fair-sized, double, fragrant, high-centered 

 flowers that combine bright apricot, gold, and deep rose-pink 

 into a glittering mass of color. Perpetual and free flowering. 

 75c each; $7.50 per doz. 



Special Offer 



We will supply one strong plant each of the 80 standard 

 varieties of Hybrid-Tea Roses described on pages 161 to 

 165 inclusive which at single rates amount to $64.50 at 

 the special price of $60.00. 



Ville de Paris 



Ville de Paris. A very distinct, rich Buttercup-yellow without 

 a trace of any other color, retaining its richness under all weather 

 conditions. In formation it is somewhat similar to Radiance, 

 fairly double, and splendid for cutting. A tall, upright grower 

 and a profuse bloomer. 75c each; $7.50 per doz. 



W. E. Chaplin. A most meritorious red Rose of the Lord 

 Charlemont type but better on account of being a vigorous 

 grower with healthy, disease-resistant foliage. Every bud 

 develops into a perfect, full, high centered, large flower which 

 will last well and has a moderate sweet scent. The blooms are 

 deep crimson shading to carmine-crimson which does not blue nor 

 burn. They are carried on long, strong stems and are borne 

 continuously. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



Wilhelm Kordes. Unique and entirely distinct in coloring — a 

 rich Nasturtium-red with coppery suffusion overlying a golden 

 salmon ground, varying in intensity under different weather con- 

 ditions but always beautiful and particularly high colored 

 early in the season and in the autumn. The buds are long and 

 pointed, opening to double, high-centered, very fragrant flowers. 

 75c each; $7.50 per doz. 



William F. Dreer. Similar in shape to Los Angeles with 

 large, high-centered, very lasting, fragrant flowers of a soft 

 silvery shell-pink. A golden suffusion illuminates the entire 

 flower. 75c each; $7.50 per doz. 



Willowmere. Bud long pointed. Full, double, cupped flowers of 

 a coral red-carmine, shaded yellow at center. A strong grower 

 and free flowering. 75c each; $7.50 per doz.
