NEW CLIMBING ROSE, DOROTHY PERKINS. 



Ne'w Bedding Rose. 



Gruss An Teplitz. 



This beautiful Rose was illustrated in colors on the cover of 

 our 1902 Catalogue, and during last spring we distributed many 

 thousands of plants and never have we received so many flatter- 

 ing reports from pleased customers as we did from this variety. 



This, the reddest of all red Roses, is to the amateur who has 

 no greenhouse and depends on his garden for flowers one of the 

 most important varieties yet introduced. It is a Rose for every- 

 body, succeeding under the most ordinary conditions, and is 

 destined to take rank with such old-time favorites as Hermosa, 

 Malmaison, Soupert, etc. In color it is of the richest scarlet 

 imaginable, shading to a velvety crimson as the flowers mature ; 

 in size it is larger than Hermosa, very fragrant, a free, strong 

 grower, quite hardy, and the most profuse bloomer known to us, 

 the mass of color produced being truly phenomenal ; the foliage 

 is extremely beautiful, all the younger growth being of a bronzy 

 plum color. 



Strong 2-year-old plants, in 5-inch pots, 30 cents each ; 

 ^3.50 per dozen ; $25.00 per 100. 



Nevir Hardy Rose, 



Soleil D'Or. 



Probably no rose recently introduced has attracted more atten- 

 tion than Soleil D'Or or Golden Sun, it being the first of an 

 entirely new race of Roses styled Perneliana. It is a cross 

 between the Persian Yellow and the hybrid perpetual Antoine 

 Ducher. It retains considerable of the character of Persian 

 Yellow, the bark of the wood being reddish, the thorns very 

 fine ; the foliage more ample, of a beautiful green and close 

 together ; like Persian Yellow this variety is perfectly hardy, 

 with large, full, globular flowers, varying in color from gold and 

 orange to reddish gold, .shaded with nasturtium red. 



Heavy 2-year old plants, 30 cents each ; $3.00 per dozen. 



Ne'w Hardy Climbing Rose. 



Climbing Clotliilde Soupert. 



Among the popular bedding Roses, Clothilde Soupert has for 

 a long time taken a front rank and in this new variety we have a 

 counterpart of this popular rose but of a strong, vigorous climbing 

 habit. In color it is a French white similar to its parent but even 

 larger in size. Its strong constitution, being perfectly hardy, free 

 vigorous healthy growth and free blooming qualities, should make 

 this one of our most popular climbers. 



2-year old plants, 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 



2>4f-inch pots, 75 cents per dozen ; $6.00 per 100. 



CLOTHILDE SOUPERT. 



Ne'w Climbing Rose. 



Dorothy Perkins. 



A climbing Rose which in strong vigorous growth and general 

 habit very closely approaches the popular Crimson Rambler ; its 

 flowers which are borne in clusters of 30 to 40 and sometimes 

 even 50 to 60, are of a beautiful distmct shell pink, full double 

 and of large size for a cluster rose and deliciously scented. A 

 decided acquisition and a rose which should become very popular. 

 I -year old plants, 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 

 2^'4^-inch pot plants. Sl-25 per dozen ; J'O.oo per 100. 



Ne'w American Crimson Rambler. 



Philadelpliia. 



This new variety is a cross between the Crimson Rambler and 

 the Hybrid Perpetual Rose, Victor Hugo. It originated with 

 the successful hybridizer, Dr. Van Fleet, who says that he con- 

 siders it the best and most valuable new rose he has yet pro- 

 duced. 



The Philadelphia Crimson Rambler differs from the old variety 

 in being of a deeper, brighter and more intense color and per- 

 fectly double to the centre, and while it is not expected to super- 

 cede the old favorite Crimson Rambler, it will prove a valuable 

 addition to our list of climbing roses. 



2i^-inch pot plants, $1.25 per dozen ; Sio.oo per 100. 



Ne'w Hybrid Tea Rose. For Forcing or Bedding. 



Franz Deegen. 



A seedling from Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. This beautiful 

 Hybrid Tea Rose is a fine grower, having dark leathery foliage 

 and the good habit of throwing up numerous heavy canes, each 

 one crowned by a glorious flower of large size composed of large 

 petals ; the outer petals are of about the color of Perle des Jar- 

 dines, the inner petals a deep shade of orange ; it is a constant 

 bloomer opening its buds freely, a .strong healthy grower not at 

 all subject to mildew. 



Awarded Gold Medal at Kansas City ; Silver Medals at 

 Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and New York.
