Pernet-Ducher's 



New Yellow 



Hybrid-Tea Rose 



Souvenir de Claudius 



Pernet 



William F. Dreer. A beautiful Rose of the same parentage as 

 Los Angeles, and which, for delicacy of coloring, is not com- 

 parable to any other variety, it reminding one of the delicate 

 tints of some varieties of water lilies. The flowers, which are 

 similar in shape to Los Angeles, and like that variety, beautiful 

 in all stages of development, are at their best in the half-ex- 

 panded flower. These, in expanding, are of a soft, silvery-shell 

 pink, the base of the petals of a rich golden-yellow which, at 

 certain stages of development, gives a golden suffusion to the 

 entire flower, this golden suffusion being particularly brilliant 

 early and late in the season. $1.50 each. 



Price. Any of the Hybrid-Tea Roses offered on this and pages 48 and 49 except where noted, '. 

 100. 25 or more supplied at the 100 rate.

PERNET-DUCHER^S 



Two Great New Souvenir Roses 



The name of Mr. Pernet-Ducher is known to every Rose lover as the originator of many of the most important Roses in our gardens 

 today. 



In offering these two new Souvenir Roses, we are satisfied we are presenting the masterpieces of this veteran French specialist, 

 varieties which he considered sufficiently meritorious to name in memory of his two sons, Claudius and Georges, who gave their lives in 

 the World's War. 



Souvenir de Claudius Pernet 



We give below Mr. Pernet-Ducher's own description, all of which we can indorse from our own observations during the past season. 



"A most vigorous grower of erect branching habit, beautiful, briUiant green foliage, long pointed buds of exquisite shape, carried on 

 long, stiff stems. Very large, full flowers with elongated deep petals, a beautifully formed bloom. Color most striking sunflower-yellow, 

 deeper in the centre, without any color blending, and which is retained without fading even in the warmest weather." 



Souvenir de Georges Pernet 



This splendid Rose is offered for the first time this season. While not as sensational in color as Claudius Pernet, we believe this to 

 be one of the most promising bedding Roses offered in recent years. In vigor of growth and freedom of bloom it even surpasses Claudius 

 Pernet; its flowers are large, of globular form, color Orient-red shading to a cochineal-carmine at the end of the petals, the whole being 

 suffused with a golden sheen. 



Price. Either of the above in strong two-year-old plants, $2.50 each; one of each for $4.50.
