BOURSAULT ROSE 



Gracilis No. 146.— A 



gorgeous, har- 



dy climbing Rose which is exceedingly scarce and much 

 sought after. It is a rapid grower, blooming in immense 

 clusters ; flowers bright rosy red ; superb ; large and full, 

 very suitable for walls and fences with a northern aspect. 

 Very hardy. 20 cts. each ; 3 for 50 cts. ; 7 for $1. 



AYRSHIRE ROSE 



Dundee Rambler No. 



147. 



— This is not a new Rose, but is very rare. It is a run- 

 ning Rose.similar in growth to the new climbing Polyan- 

 tha Roses, White, Pink and Yellow Ramblers, being 



rather slender in growth and an exceedingly rapid climber. 

 For plandng in rough situations where others will not 

 thrive, for covering banks, or for running up old trees or 

 pillars, this variety is excellent. It is also good when 

 used as a Weeping Rose — in short, this variety is perhaps 

 unexcelled for general purposes. There are several vari- 

 eties included in the Ayrshire class, but this is the best. 

 The flowers are very pretty, being white in color and 

 semi-double. We recommend this variety as being par- 

 ticularly desirable. Young plants quickly make a large 

 bush, growing 15 to 20 feet in one season. Perfectly 

 hardy in all sections. 20 cts. each ; 3 for 50 cts. ; 

 7 for $1; two-year-old plants, 35 cts. each.
