The Exquisite Bab\ Doll 



Polyantha Roses 



These, sometimes called Fairie Roses, are the most truly 

 everbloom^ing of all roses — they are practically never out of 

 flower during the entire season. Dwarf in size, with an 

 average height of less than 18 inches, compact growth, 

 great hardiness, beautiful, well-formed blooms which last 

 well on the bush, make this class indispensable for edging, 

 massing, and mingling with other flowers. The class covers 

 a wide range of forms, sizes, and colors, so the individual 

 taste may be satisfied. They are rapidly growing in 

 popularity because beauty in miniature is always appre- 

 ciated. 



A conspicuous group is composed of the Baby Ram- 

 blers, so called because of the resemblance, in dwarf, to 

 the ramblers, with blooms produced in large, many- 

 flowered clusters, and growth hardly 12 inches in height. 



Baby DoU or Tip Top 



The flowers are miniature in size but magnificent in 



form and produced by the hundreds. Exquisite for cutting 



or bouquets and bedding purposes. Makes a magnificent 



show in the open ground, always blooming from early 



spring until late faU. The tips of the petals are vivid 



scarlet, then mellowing down through shades of pink into 



saffron, lavender and gold, finally into deep old gold, a 



combination extraordinary and pleasing. Foliage slender 



and produced in abundance, dark lustre green. 



Ideal. The darkest of all the Polyanthas, an intense 



lustrous garnet. Flowers are not large but are produced 



in very large trusses and are very effective. Compact 



habit of growth. Blooms abundantly all season. Price,
