Pot-Grown Everblooming Roses 



For Immediate Effect 



MA MAN COCHET WM. R. SMITH 



The plants I offer are strong two years plants, all on their own roots, in five-inch pots. If planted in 

 July, August or September they will give considerable bloom this season and become so well established 

 they will yield a veritable "festival of flowers" the whole of next summer and autumn; and for many years 

 to come. 



The varieties I offer are of the very choicest of all the long list of Hybrid Tea and other Everblooming 

 Roses. In shipping, the plants are taken from the earthen pots in which they are growing and the ball of 

 earth at the roots encased in water-proof paper pots, which in turn are encased in damp moss ; thus retaining 

 the earth and moisture at the roots. Packed in this manner they carry perfectly and arrive at destination 

 in splendid condition; affording the utmost satisfaction to purchasers. I recommend shipment by Express — 

 not by freight. I can ship by Parcel Post, but do not advise shipment in this way. 



All the roses offered in this catalog are grown upon their own roots. We find Everblooming Roses thus 

 grown more satisfactory by far than budded plants. 



In planting pulverize the earth deeply and thoroughly, apply fertilizers generously (well-rotted stable 

 manure or ground bone), prune freely and water copiously, for best results. Almost all are hardy without 

 protection at Monmouth though all are benefited by a light covering in winter. 



BLUMENSCHMIDT. — Pure light yellow with 

 outer petals edged with rose. A vigorous grower 

 and one of the best of its class. 



CLOTILDE SOUPERT.— Flowers pearly white 

 with rosy-lake center, in clusters. Dwarf compact 

 habit; a free and constant bloomer. 



ETOILE DE FRANCE.— A grand, deep red Rose. 

 The buds are large and well formed; the flowers, 

 which appear all summer, are large, full and rich 

 velvety crimson. 



GOLDEN GATE. — Flowers rich creamy white, 

 the base of petals and center of the flower being soft 

 yellow and sometimes tinted with rose. 



GRUSS AN TEPLITZ.— Its bright crimson 

 flowers are freely produced all summer and are fra- 

 grant. They are, however, rather small and are 

 not very full. 



HELEN GOULD.— This has handsome, long 

 buds and full, rich crimson flowers. Quite fragrant. 



KAISER IN AUGUSTA VICTORIA.— A 



splendid white Rose, with large, long pearly white 

 buds; slightly tinted with lemon. The flowers are 

 large, full and fragrant and are held on long, strong 

 stems. It is a strong grower. 



KILLARNEY (The Irish Beauty).— The semi- 

 double flowers are of good size, soft pink with lemon 

 yellow at base of petals, and are delightfully fragrant. 

 Its long, pointed buds are very lovely. Altogether a 

 superb variety. 



KILLARNEY, WHITE.— A white sport of the 

 Killarney and like it in every way except it has more 

 petals than its parent and its flowers are pure, waxy 

 white. A valuable Rose indeed. 



HERMOSA.— This lovely old Rose is still very 

 popular. The flowers are small, very double, rosy 

 pink and fragrant. It is always in bloom and gives 

 you a cheering welcome. 



LA FRANCE. — The flowers are large and full, 

 silvery pink and very fragrant. It is beautiful in 

 bud and a free bloomer, but it is not a strong grow- 

 ing variety, has a weak stem.
