CARDINAL 



Of all the Roses which we have introduced for 

 years there is none which has measured up better 

 to the ideal standard than this. It has amply 

 fulfilled its promise of being the most valuable red 

 Rose, for the garden, in the hardy, ever-blooming 

 class. Color, a rich cardinal-red. It is a very 

 strong grower with a superb flower. Its fragrance 

 is very strong and sweet. The color of the flowers 

 holds good in the hottest weather; the health and 

 vigor of the plant enable it to produce flowers 

 constantly during the entire season. (See cut, alsc

CHATEAU DE CLOS VOUGEOT 



A very rich, fiery-scarlet shading to deep velvety- 

 crimson; surpassing in color the famous "Jubilee" 

 Rose which we introduced in 1897. Words are 

 inadequate to describe and pigments are not made 

 which could reproduce the wonderful coloring and 

 texture of this truly remarkable Rose. The velvety 

 finish on the petals, the conflagration of color, the 

 fine shape, the size, the dark green, heavy foliage, 

 so strong and healthy as to be immune from the two 

 scourges of Roses, black spot and white mildew, 

 all stamp it as a variety of pronounced merit.
