PLANT DINCEE OWN ROOT ROSES— THE BEST 



001111111513 — A fine Garden Rose 



*c 



rimson Beauty 



Hybrid Tea. At first we were at a loss 

 to find a name that would be descriptive of 

 this magnificent, new, crimson beauty, but 

 the proper name soon suggested itself be- 

 cause this new, hardy ever-blooming garden 

 bush rose is the result of this parentage — 

 the great (American) "Hoosier Beauty" 

 crossed with "Crimson Champion" and 

 there you have the the 

 name — "Crimson 

 Beauty". 



This splendid new va- 

 riety has wealth in 

 abundance, grows clean, 

 strong and sturdy, 

 has no weaknesses and 

 blooms in marvelous 

 profusion, bearing its 

 magnificent crimson 

 flowers, which have 

 much of the form of 

 "Gruss an T e p 1 i t z," 

 throughout the growing 

 season, so that the bush % r -^.- - 

 is literally covered ear- 

 ly and late with its gor- 

 geous crimson flowers. 

 Roses of this type arc 

 in the greatest demand 

 because of their health, 

 beauty and perman- 

 ency. 



HYBRID TEA ROSES— Continued 



Columbia (The Gem of the Garden) 



It is an extremely profuse bloomer — as 

 ;ree a bloomer as the Teas, especially in the 

 cooler seasons, for the plant is a strong 

 grower and is made up chiefly of flower 

 stems. The color is a deep peach pink, 

 deepening into a glowing pink, a perfect 

 color. Handsome, firm buds, are borne on 

 long, stiff stems well above the foliage, and 

 open into very large somewhat Hat flowers 

 of good substance, splendid lasting quality 

 and of delightful fragrance. Heavy, healthy 

 foliage. 



MAD. JULES GROLEZ— The color is a 

 distinct and charming shade of cherry- 

 red. The fine form and attractive shape 

 of the flowers makes them excellent for 

 cutting. 



CITY OF LITTLE ROCK— Distinct and 

 beautiful in color, a bright rosy pink or 

 rose shaded with Hydrangea pink. The 

 buds which open perfectly are long of 

 ideal form. 



ETOILE DE FRANCE— The strong, up- 

 right bushes have beautiful bronze-green 

 foliage, which is not subject to insect at- 

 tacks. The bushes are blooming con- 

 stantly, producing large, massive, deep, 

 full cup-formed flowers of clear red or 

 velvetv crimson.
