The Exquisite "Baby Doll.' 



Xote illustration in colors on back cover. 



A wonderful little Rose, The color illustration on back cover does not 

 do it justice, in fact it is almost impossible to correctly portray the 

 wonderful coloring effect. 



The flowers are miniature in size but magnificent in form and pro- 

 duced by the hundreds, exquisite for cutting or bouquets and bedding 

 purposes. Makes a magnificent show in the open ground, always bloom- 

 ing from early spring until late fall, equal to the Souperts or Baby Ram- 

 blers, and we consider it the most wonderful Rose introduced for yearsr. 

 The tips of the petals are vivid scarlet, then mellowing down through 

 shades of pink into saffron, lavender and gold, finally into deep old gold, 

 a combination so extraordinary and so pleasing that everyone seeing i.t 

 exclaims "What a Wonderful Rose." 



Foliage slender and produced in abundance, dark lustre green. 



Price, strong one-year plants. 25c each; 5 for $1.00, postpaid; two-year- 

 old plants, 50c each; $5.00 per dozen, by express.
