Mrs. David Jardine 



A Wondrous, Hardy, Brilliant, Pink Bush Rose 



An exquisite new Hybrid Tea of a shade of brilliant pink not 

 equaled by any other Rose. The color varies from a deep 

 shade in the center to an exquisite salmon tint on the outer 

 petals, with a peculiar soft, pastel eflFect. Its petals exhale a 

 fragrance only to be compared to the famous Attar of Roses. 

 The lasting quality of the flowers when cut is marvelous. They 

 have been known to keep in perfect condition more than a week 

 in water. A wonderfully vigorous grower, absolutely hardy 

 everywhere, bearing its flowers in great profusion all summer. 

 OLIVIA. A most gorgeous, distinct, extra-hardy Rose of deep, 

 brilliant rose-pink. The flowers are of splendid substance, 

 deep and full double, the buds being particularly handsome 

 in form. For bedding and cutting purposes it has no superior. 

 The bush is a strong, vigorous grower and constantly in 

 bloom. 

 NORMA. Almost like Mad. Caroline Testout in form and 

 sturdiness of growth; of splendid fragrance, and the color 

 is a magnificent shade of pink. 

 PRECIOSA. Bud shiny crimson, with double flowers of fine 

 substance; splendid grower and free bloomer; long, stiff 

 stems; excellent in every way. 

 MAX HESDORFFER. A New Rosy Pink Hybrid Tea. The bril- 

 liancy of color in the delightfully fresh, rosy pink of this 

 excellent new Rose is only equaled by the delicious fragrance 

 exhaled by its petals. In every respect it is a Rose of which 

 we are proud, and everywhere it has been grown it has 

 given unbounded satisfaction. As a garden Rose it has 

 few equals, forms a strong, stout bush and is always 

 in bloom.

Perle Von Godesberg 



Perle Von Godesberg 



This magnificent Rose was originally sent out 

 from Germany as a Yellow Kaiserin Augusta Vic- 

 toria, it having all the beauty of form and substance 

 of that great garden Rose. The color is a rich 

 canary-yellow with shadings of saffron. The 

 flowers are massive in size, full and double, with 

 the petals elegantly recurved. It is one of the 

 finest garden Roses, being perfectly hardy. 

 MRS. ROBERT GARRETT. Bright clear pink; 

 free bloomer and strong grower, almost as 

 large as those of American Beauty. 

 MRS. POTTER PALMER. Clear, shining pink; 

 much like La France. The flowers are large, 

 full and double. 

 MRS. THEODORE ROOSEVELT. A charming 

 seedling of La France, bearing all the good 

 points of its parent. In color, it is an exqui- 

 site creamy white with dainty pink shadings. 

 Buds are particularly handsome — full, long and 

 pointed. Thoroughly hardy, the stout, vigor- 

 ous bush is constantly in bloom. 

 MISS KATE MOULTON. Light pink, very beauti- 

 ful; habit robust, with heavy foliage, making it 

 a grand Rose for outdoor culture. 

 PEGGY. Semi-double, claret-smeared, saffron- 

 yellow, shading to a pale crimson as it expands. 

 Blooms are produced in remarkable profusion.
