American Beauties 



If any Rose has earned the title of the "National Rose," it is 

 American Beauty. Wherever the Rose is known, it is the queen, 

 and deservedly so. In size, color, form and fragrance, it has no 

 equal. Of quick, healthy, bushy growth, either in pots or outdoors, 

 with magnificent foliage, it produces in abundance glorious buds 

 and large, deep, double flowers of immense size. The three kinds 

 below make a gorgeous combination. 



* Crimson American Beauty 



American Beauty is splendid for open-ground cul- 

 ture, and is hardy in nearly all localities, except 

 where the winters are particularly severe, provided 

 the true stock is planted. Our plants are grown in 

 specially prepared soil by our own expert growers. 

 We guarantee our plants to be true to name, abso- 

 lutely first-class in every particular. Color, rich 

 crimsion, charmingly shaded and veined. As the 

 flowers expand, their beauty seems to be enhanced 

 rather than diminished. The fragrance is not ex- 

 celled by any Rose known. 



*Pink American Beauty 



QUEEN OF EDGELY 



We believe we are the only house offering this 

 beautiful new variety, which is identical in every 

 way with American Beauty, of which it is an off- 

 spring, except in color, which is soft, rich pink, fad- 

 ing still lighter as the flower grows older. Has the 

 same large, massive, cup-shaped flowers and fra- 

 grance; in short, it is a lovely blonde full sister to 

 the dark brunette, American Beauty. Ours is the 

 original stock, not to be had elsewhere. 



* White American Beauty 



FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI 



This brilliant white type Rose has become re- 

 nowned as the very highest type of its class and the 

 best snow-white Rose ever introduced. It is an 

 extraordinarily strong grower, branching freely, and 

 has the vigor and hardiness of an oak. Large, heavy 

 foliage and magnificent flowers that are nothing less 

 than glorious — immense in size and produced with 

 great freedom on long, stiff stems. The color is 

 marvelously white, without a tinge of yellow or any 

 other shade. Hardy everywhere. Grown on its own 

 roots. 



Price of American Beauty Rose in extra strong first size 

 plants, 35c each; 3 for $1.00, postpaid; extra heavy two-year- 

 old plants, 75c each; $7.50 per dozen.
