Saul's Striped No. 141 (Saul).— This is the most 



remarkable Rose that we have ever 



had to do with. Several years ago we purchased all the 

 original stock from the raiser, tlie late John Saul. It is 

 very valuable, both on account of its remarkable flowers 

 and habit, as well as from the disinclination of its cuttings 

 to root. Once established, it is a good grower, with dark- 

 green leaves that crinkle and droop, giving the plant at 

 times a dying appearance. The flowers are away ahead 

 of anything yet seen in striped Roses, even surpassing 

 Vick's Caprice. The color is deep crimson striped with 

 white ; the flowers are large, double and of splendid 

 substance. A Rose that we prize because we believe it 

 is the most extraordinary striped Rose in cultivation.

 flowers. The color is cherry red ; petals large, shell-
