Wanted, H )Same 



WE WILL introduce and offer for sale, January 1, 1898, what we believe to be the rarest and most beautiful novelty 

 yet found in Roses— nothing less than a pure, white, hardy, ever-blooming Climbing Rose, with magnificent 

 long-pointed buds and full, deep flowers, the equal in grace and finish of any cut-flower Rose, with the most 

 delicious fragrance imaginable! Until a suitable name shall have been selected, it will be known as No. 999. 

 An idea of its beauty may be had from our illustration on the accompanying colored plate. Our achievements in originat- 

 ing and introducing New Roses have earned us a world-wide reputation, but we are confident that No. 999 will be our 

 greatest introduction.
