MODERN ROSES OF PROVED M E R I T- -Continued 



(They are all of the Hybrid Tea class except where noted) 



See 



explanation 

 of illustration 

 below 



Our Third Size Roses are grown in 3-inch pots. 

 They are superior to the young Roses from 2-inch 

 pots usually sent out because the larger pot gives 

 ample room for root action and allows the plant 

 to grow naturally. They are sturdy and compact, 

 and when sent by express with the soil on the 

 roots transplanting scarcely checks their growth. 

 In the cut above we show a fair sample of a 2-inch 

 pot plant as usually sent out by the mail trade 

 and a fair sample taken from our stock growing 

 in a 3-inch pot. 



PINK MAMAN COCHET 



The buds are a beautiful pink; the color is held 

 in the open flower. The flower stems are long; 

 the buds and flowers are held erect, and it is 

 delightfully fragrant. _ Conceded by all to be the 

 ideal ever-blooming pink, hardy, garden Rose. 



Price, 1st size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.; 2d size, 

 50c. each, $5.00 per doz.; 3d size, from 3-inch pots, 

 15c. each, $1.50 per doz. 



RICHMOND 



This splendid variety was raised by one of the 

 leading Rose growers in America and at once be- 

 came very popular for winter flowering, not only 

 in this country but abroad. At the present time

 grown Hybrid Tea Rose of its color. It blooms 

 as freely as the freest of the Monthly Roses; very 

 easy to grow, splendid foliage, long stems. The

 very vivid and rich. In the garden the flowers 

 are very lasting, the color remaining clear and 

 bright to the very last. Delightfully fragrant.
