MRS. LOVETT. 



A Double, Bright Pink, Sweet -Scented Form 

 of the Memorial Hose. 



This charming Rose possesses in a high 

 degi'ee those good qualities which so many of 

 the new Wichmiana hybrids lack, viz, large 

 size, good form, brightness of color of flower, 

 etc. Amongst all the varieties that have been 

 produced from the Japanese trailing Rose 

 there are none that can compare with Mrs. 

 Lovett in beauty and value. It was produced 



upon my own grounds and, like many of best flowers and fruits, it is 

 a matural hybrid. In every respect it is a tare Wichuraiana, save the 

 flowers— in habit of groth and foliage, hardiness and abundduce of 

 bloom it is identical with its parent; but its roses are very double, two 

 to two and a half inches in diameter and are of the liveliest and most 

 cheerful, bright, rosy pink imaginable. Best of all, it is as fragrant 

 as the American Beauty; although its fragrance is distinct from that 

 of any other rose. It is unsurpassed for covering banks and terraces 

 and is a beautiful and appropriate cemetery rose — by far surpassing 

 the Memorial Rose in every way. Its mass of glossy, rich green foliage 

 renders it most attractive at all time-^ ; it is seldom without bloom from 

 June to October, and is almost evergreen. {See illustration, reduced 

 one half. ) 



Price.— From 2^ inch pots, each, 10c. ; dozen, SI 00. 



Strong, field-grown plants, each, 20c , dozen, $3.00. 



ROSA WTCHLRIAXA. 



The Memor ial Rose. 



A distinct species from Japan and of much 

 charming grace and beauty. It is a perfect 

 trailer, hugging the ground closely and running 

 10 to 15 feet in a season, densely clothed with 

 glossy, dark green foliage and with but few 

 thorns. The flowers are single, pure snowy 

 white, with bright yellow discs and delightful 

 fragrance borne in clusters so numerous as to 

 fairly envelop the plant. It blooms later than 

 othei* Roses, producing its flowers in a fleecy 

 nnass. It euceeds everywhere, but is peculiarly 



appropriate for cemetery planting and also for 

 covering banks and barren places. 

 Price.— From 23^ inch pots, ea.. doz , SI. 00.

CLIMBIIVG CLOTILDE 

 SOUPERT. 



A New Hardy Everblooming Climbing Rose 

 A new climber of great value and already 

 much esteemed. It is a seedling of the wellknown 

 ('lotilde Soupert and resembles its parent in color 

 and form of its flowers, but they are larger and 

 the plant is a vigorous grower, possessing the 

 true climbing habit It is also extreamely hardy, 

 having successfully withstood a temperature of 

 twenty degrees below^ zero without protection. 

 A wo:iderfully free and constant bloomer, with 

 tae same everblooming habit as its parent, ex- 

 ceedingly beautiful in flower and very effective. 

 It will undoubtedly soon become a great favorite 

 and is worthy of it.
