 (G. Paul & Son.) 

 One of the real charming Roses, with single 

 flowers 12 to 15 inches in circumference; of the 

 brightest rosy carmine and produced in great 

 profusion. The editor of Gardening says of it: 

 "Paul's Carmine Pillar Rose is in bloom, and 

 what a beauty it is: Saucer-shaped single Roses, 

 fully three inches in diameter, of the color that 

 gave it its name, dot the bush from the ground 

 up to its tips, some eight or more feet high. A 

 matured plant must be a sight worth going miles 

 to see. This Rose is undoubtedly hardy in most 

 sections of our country, and in all sections under 

 protection, and should be as universally grown 

 as a Crimson Rambler ." 20 cts. each; 3 for 50

 RED MARECHAL NIEL No. 105 (Dr. Muller) — 



Perhaps the most sought 



after yellow Rose, particularly for growing in the 

 Southern and Southwestern States, is that glorious 

 Rose Marechal Niel. Without rival in the sunny 

 South, where it attains a degree of perfection sel- 

 dom seen in any Rose; in the North with careful 

 protection during the winter it gives equal satisfac- 

 tion. In ' Red Marechal Niel we have a companion to 

 this splendid variety, and to White Marechal Niel 

 described below. Red Marechal Niel is the result of 

 a cross between General Jacqueminot and Yfllow 

 Marechal Niel, and was introduced by one of the 

 leading rosarians of Europe. The flowers are large 

 both in bud and open flower the same as Marechal 

 Niel, being almost identical in shape and formation.

 fully fragrant. Very beautiful and exceedingly scarce.

 hardiness as Marechal Niel. Price of one-year-old

 with the exception of the color of the flower, which 

 is pure white. Tike Red and Yellow Marechal Niel 

 this variety is particularlv adapted to growing where 

 the climate is mild, while if carefully protected in 

 the North will rank among the best of its class. 15 

 cts. each; 4 for 50 cts.; two-year-old plants. 35 cts. 

 each.

Rraman, Oklahoma. January 24. lfWM. 

 Gentlemen:— Since I sent you my first order, about 

 twelve years ago, I have never found anyone who dealt 

 with you who was not a good deal more than satisfied. 

 and I have always thought (me of the nieest thinsrs 

 about the firm is that you seem to lake a personal in- 

 terest in each one of your customers. Wishing you all 

 success, I remain, yours sincerely.
