Hardy Everblooming Rose, 



SOUVENIR DU PRESIDENT CARNOT 



Unquestionably the finest Rose of its color introdm :< 1 

 in a decade. Whether considered from the standpoint 

 of the commercial cut-flower-grower or from its fitness for 

 garden work, this Rose is without a superior, and it is doubt- 

 ful if it has an equal. The growth is vigorous, the foliage 

 dark green and very handsome, but the glory of the variety 

 is in its flower. It is very large, both in the bud and in 

 the expanded flower, double to the center, and opens beau- 

 tifully. The coloring is nearer like Devonicnsis than any 

 Rose on the market at the present time, but it is lighter 

 and approaches nearer to a white. Technically described, it 

 could be called a rosy-flesh, very soft in the center, and shaded with 

 a lighter flesh at the end of the petals. (See cut.) Price, 1st si 

 50c. each, $5.00 per doz.; 2d size, 35c. each, $3.50 per doz.; 3d size 

 15c. each, $1.50 per doz. 



A Popular Everblooming Kose, 



C. P STPvASHEIM. 



A very valuable summer-bloom- 

 ing Tea Rose. It is distinguished 

 among the many meritorious Roses 

 we offer for its healthy, vigorous 

 habit and its great freedom of bloom. 

 The color is a very delicate shade of 

 primrose-yellow with a tint of fawn, 

 the latter shade being quite pro- 

 nounced in the center of the flowers. 

 As the flower ages the color lightens 

 towards the ends of the petals to a 

 light sulphur-yellow, almost white, 

 making a charming contrast with the 

 darker portions of the flowers, giving 

 a very finished and unique appear- 

 ance to it. Like all of the ever- 

 blooming monthly Roses, it is at 

 its best during the cool days of 

 spring and fall. (See cut.) 



Price, 1st size, 50c. each, $4.50 

 per doz.; 2d size, 30c. each, $3.00 per 

 doz. ; 3d size, 10c. each, $1.00 per doz.

 Hybrid Tea Rose, branching in habit, 

 vigorous and hardy, and as free- 

 blooming as a Tea Rose. The flowers

 globular, light rosy crimson. Every 

 shoot produces a bloom; one of the 

 most promising new roses. Price, 

 1st size, 60c. each, $6.00 per doz.;
