LA PRINCESS VERA 



A Splendid Outdoor Rose 

 We have had in our trial grounds several hundred 

 varieties of Roses. For strong, clean growth, freedom 

 and constancy of bloom and beauty of flower and color 

 this variety is one of the best. Without doubt this is a 

 grand Rose for general planting, particularly for bed- 

 ding in the open ground. The flowers are large, finely 

 made and open beautifully; when fully open there ap- 

 pears to be a flower within a flower, so perfect is the 

 form. The color is rich ivory white, shaded and veined 

 with tine coppery yellow, and delicately penciled with 

 pale blush. A truly grand and beautiful Rose, and one 

 that by virtue of its great excellence ranks among the 

 best in cultivation.

 Jacquier 



Strong Growing Free-Blooming Rose 



We apprehend there are a great number of our cus- 

 tomers unacquainted with the fact that this is one of 

 the most beautiful— in short, a Rose that compares fa- 

 vorably with the celebrated leading kinds. We think 

 this variety worthy of recognition, for as far as our 

 specimens go, we consider it a most satisfactory Hose 

 for general planting. The flowers are farge, beautiful 

 and finely formed, very double, full and deliciously 

 perfumed. Color bright rosy carmine, deepening to 

 crimson: elegantly tinged and shaded coppery yellow. 

 It is of strong, sturdy habit of growth, and produces 

 its grand flowers, profuselv and constantly, from early 

 Summer until late Fall. We are confident that this va- 

 riety will please everyone who plants it. It cannot pe 

 surpassed for massing or bedding 



DEVONIENSIS 



The Charming Magnolia Rose 

 We doubt if there is scarcely anyone who doe 

 know of the beauty of this famous old favorite. There 

 is no other variety like it. and none more beautiful or 

 desirable. If there is one variety more than another 

 that we are partial to it is Devoniensis. It is fine any- 

 where. Planted outdoors it gives an abundance of its 

 beautiful flowers all through the season. The color Is a 

 lovely creamy white with rosy centers, large, very fuK 

 and double, and deliciously scented. This is the one 

 Rose that should be seen in every garden. 15c. each: 

 4 for 5OC.5 9 for Si.
