The Lovely Killarney Roses 



(See Illustration in Colors on Opposite Page) 



* Pink Killarney 



The Famous Irish Rose 



This queen of the Irish Roses excels any other of its 

 class and color yet introduced, and by many is recognized 

 as the most beautiful, hardy, everblooming Hybrid Tea 

 Rose now under culture. Each season since it was intro- 

 duced Killarney has increased in popularity, and the de- 

 mand has always exceeded the supply. We have an im- 

 mense quantity, however, and guarantee every plant to 

 be true to name. The bush is strong and upright, with 

 beautiful, deep bronzy green foliage, and the Rose is en- 

 tirely free-blooming, bearing immense, long pointed buds 

 and massive flowers on big, heavy shoots. The color is 

 deep, brilliant and sparkling shell-pink, of the most ex- 

 quisite shade. The flowers are of delightful fragrance, 

 immense size, and have thick petals of great substance. 

 Killarney is unusually hardy and without protection has 

 stood severe winters as far north as Boston. Strong one- 

 year-old plants, 20c each, 3 for 50c; larger size, 30c each, 

 4 for $1.00 postpaid. Extra strong two-year-old plants, 

 on own roots, 50c each. 



' White Killarney 



An offspring of the pink Killarney and is one of the 

 most exquisite white Roses grown. The long, full buds 

 are handsome in shape and the full-open flower most re- 

 fined and beautiful in form and texture. Strong plants, 

 20c each, 6 for $1.00; larger size, 30c each; two-year-old 

 plants, 50c each. 



* Yellow Killarney 



Mme. Jenny Gillemot 



A brilliant saffron-yellow Rose, opening canary with 

 dark golden shades. The buds are long and pointed, 

 beautiful in form and color, the flowers are large with 

 immense petals. Hardy and vigorous, it is in constant 

 bloom all summer. Blooms produced on long, stiff steins, 

 making an excellent Rose for cutting. Owing to its re- 

 semblance to the Killarneys, we have called it the Yellow 

 Killarney, as it makes a good companion for them. 20c 

 each, 3 for 50c; larger size, 25c each; two-year-old plants, 

 45c each.
