7L7c?Z7o s F HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES 



The Hybrid Perpetual Roses are commonly known as "June Roses." 

 They are distinguished for their large flowers, richness of coloring, delightful, 

 6picy fragrance and above all for their hardiness, being capable of resisting 

 frost which would destroy most of the ever-blooming Roses. For this reason 

 they are largely planted in the North. While the main crop of flowers is 

 borne in early summer occasional blooms are produced late in the season. 

 Some of the varieties are almost as free blooming as the "Monthly" class. 

 Alfred Coiomb. Carmine-crimson. A grand Rose in every way. Unexcelled 



in habit and profusion of bloom. 

 *Anna de Diesbach (Gloire de Paris). Rich carmine. A grand Rose. This 



fine variety is most useful for garden purposes. 

 Baron de Bonstetten. Blackish crimson, vivid red shadings. Considered by 



many to be the finest dark crimson Rose. 

 Baroness Rothschild. Exquisite shade of satiny-pink. A beautiful variety. 

 *Black Prince. One of the finest Roses of its class. The color is dark vel- 

 vety crimson passing to intense maroon and shaded black. 

 ♦Caprice. Ground-color, soft satiny pink, distinctly striped and dashed with 



white and carmine. A very pretty and novel variety. 

 ♦Captain Hayward. Color a bright scarlet. Outer petals finely reflexed, 



while the center petals stand up well. 



♦Clio. A very vigorous grower, has large handsome foliage. The color is 

 delicate satin blush, with a light shading of rosy-pink at the center. 



♦Conrad F. Meyer. The color is a pure silvery-pink. Its beautiful foliage 

 alone would recommend it as an ornamental shrub for the garden. The 

 fragrance is delightful. Valuable for hedges. 



♦Coquette des Alps. One of the best and freest-blooming of the hardy white 

 Roses, occasionally shows light blush when first opening. 



*Dinsmore. A splendid bedding Rose, as free blooming as the "Monthly," 

 dwarf branching habit. Dazzling scarlet crimson, full and double. 



Eugene Furst. A grand Rose, fiery-red; flowers large and double. 



♦Francois Levet. A profuse bloomer. The flowers are large, double and 

 deep rosy-red, the shade known as "cherry-rose."

 across, perfectly double and delightfully fragrant, large thick petals.

 entirely hardy. (See engraving Page 146 and colored plate Page 136.) 



♦Gen. Jacqueminot. A rich, dark crimson with velvety sheen, full and 

 fragrant. Known as the "Jack" Rose. A universal favorite. 



*Hugh Dickson. A rich deep crimson, shaded scarlet; intermediate tones 

 added give a brilliant effect. An exceptionally fine red Rose. Rich and 

 spicy fragrance, a vigorous grower and free bloomer. 



*J. B. Clark. Brilliant crimson with intense scarlet lights on the upper sur- 

 faces. In size, form, color and texture it stands supreme in its color. It is 

 very fragrant, a vigorous grower, fine foliage. (Sec colored plate Page 136.) 



John Hopper. Bright rose with carmine center, large and full, esteemed by 

 all who grow it as of the highest order. 



♦Jubilee. The grandest hardy dark red Rose yet offered. The flowers are 

 very large, the fragrance strong and spicy. The color is pure red in its 

 deepest tone, shading to deep crimson-red with velvety maroon in the 

 depths of the flowers. It is the darkest combined with pure color of 

 which nature is capable. (See colored plate Page 136.) 



*La France. Peach-blossom color, shaded pink and silver-rose. The flowers 

 are large and beautiful either in the bud form or when 

 fully expanded. It is very free blooming, every shoot 

 forming a flower and deliciously fragrant.

Hardy Rose AMERICAN REAUTY 



A hardy Rose of the largest size, having the ever-blooming qualities of 

 the Tea Rose, with the delicious odor of the Damask Rose, consequently 

 equally valuable for winter or summer flowering. In color, it is a deep, 

 brilliant rosy-carmine, shaded toward the center with rich carmine-crimson. 

 This is unquestionably the most popular Rose now before the public, a popu- 

 larity due entirely to its splendid value as a winter-forcing variety. It 

 has, however, some value as a garden variety and is very much sought 

 after.

 per doz.; 3d size, from 3-inch pots, 20c. each, $2.00 per doz. 



yellSw r £ose, "SOLIEL D'OR, or GOLDEN SUN" 



The coloring in the fully expanded flower is gloriously superb, Turner- 

 esque in its blending of reddish-gold, orange-yellow, nasturtium-red and 

 opaline-pink. Words are inadequate to describe the riotous luxury of rich, 

 warm color contained in each bud and flower.
