PEARL OF THE GARDEN 



The color is a clear golden j-ellow, of a beautiful 

 shade, and is entirely distinct from any other va- 

 riety; the flowers are large, full, of globular form, 

 with great depth and substance, richly perfumed, and 

 verv^ beautiful in every way. This magnificent Rose 

 still holds its position as one of the most exquisite 

 and beautiful of its color ever introduced, and the 

 demand for it is constantly increasing as its great 

 value becomes kno-um. It is ideal for cutting 

 purposes. 15 cts. each, 50 cts. for 4; larger size, 

 20 cts. each 50 cts. for 3.

 white flowers are unusually large, deep, full and 

 double, borne on long, stiff stems throughout 

 the season in great profusion.

 petals, large and very fragrant flowers.

THE QUEEN OF WHITE ROSES 



We recommend it as one of the most reliable 

 white Tea Roses in cultivation, especially for out- 

 door culture. The color is pure white, sometimes 

 faintly tinged pale yellow. The flowers are beauti- 

 fully made, ver\^ large, full and double; the buds are 

 very pretty, of sweet fragrance. Any one who has 

 not seen this splendid varietj^ gro-^dng at its best 

 in the open ground, cannot conceive of the lovely 

 beauty of its large, bold, handsome flowers.
