Hardy Hybrid Perpetual Roses— Continued 



Anna De Diesbacti 



Glory of Paris 



An offspring of the famous old favorite, La 

 Reine, and also the seed parent of that gloiious 

 variety, Paul Neyron, w^hich facts should be 

 effective evidence of its good qualities. The 

 color is the most lovely brilliant carmine; long, 

 pointed buds and large, finely-formed, compact 

 flowers, very full and double and delightfully 

 sweet. A vigorous grower and a fine bloomer; 

 one of the really good Roses. 



BOULE DE NEIGE 



A very hardy, pure white variety; medium size; 

 very full, double flowers. 



BLACK PRINCE 



Much sought after because of its splendid dark 

 crimson flowers, which are shaded so deeply as to 

 be almost black; cupped, large, full, fine shaped. 



CAPTAIN CHRISTY

 pale peach, deepening at center to rosy crimson.

 through the season.

The color is satiny pink in the center and deepens 

 to the outer petals to a bright rose. The feathery

 colors. Very free flowering and a good grower.

 and i)erfectly double; blooms the first season and 

 almost constantly. 



GLOIRE DE MARGOTTIN

 shaded carmine and blush. Very fragrant.
