 Roses 



The Killarney Roses are Magnificent Bloomers. 



^ Pink Killarney 



The Famous Irish Rose. 



This queen of the Irish Roses excels any other of 

 its class yet introduced, and by many is recognized 

 as the most beautiful, hardy, everblooming Hybrid 

 Tea Rose now under culture. Each season since it 

 was introduced Killarney has increased in popularity, 

 and the demand has always exceeded 

 the supply. We have an immense 

 quantity, however, and guarantee 

 every plant to be true to name. The 

 bush is strong and upright, with 

 beautiful, deep bronzy green foliage, 

 and the Rose is entirely free-bloom- 

 ing, bearing immense, long pointed 

 buds and massive flowers on big, 

 heavy shoots. The color is deep, 

 brilliant and sparkling shell-pink of 

 the most exquisite shade. The flow- 

 ers are of delightful fragrance, im- 

 mense size, and have thick petals of 

 great substance. Killarney is usual- 

 ly hardy and without protection has 

 stood severe winters as far north 

 as Boston. Strong, one-year-old 

 plants, 20c each, 3 for 50c: extra 

 strong two-year-old plants, on own 

 roots, 50c each. 



* Yellow Killarney 



Mme. Jenny Gillemot. 



A brilliant saffron-yellow Rose, 

 opening canary with dark golden 

 shades. The buds are long and 

 pointed, beautiful in form and color, 

 the flowers are large with immense 

 petals. Hardy and vigorous; it is in 

 constant bloom all summer. Blooms 

 produced on long, stiff stems, niak- 

 ing an excellent Rose for cutting. 

 Owing to its resemblance to the Kil- 

 larneys. we have called it the Yellow 

 Killarney, as it makes a good com- 

 panion for them. 20c each: 3 for 

 50c: two-year-old plants, 45c each. 



DO YOU KNOW HOW A ROSE BUSH 

 IS MADE? — Roses that are grown on their 

 own roots, and they are the only ones that 

 are worth planting:, are made from branches 

 of the mother plant. These branches are cut 

 in lengths according to the eyes thereon. In 

 order to increase the production these cut- 

 tings are frequently made with only one 

 eye, which makes a small and weak plant. 

 Where two eyes are taken the plant is twice 

 as large and of twice as much vitality and 

 blooming quality. So in buying plants re- 

 member our plants are made from these 

 strong two-eyed cuttings and are worth much 

 more than those weak one-eyed plants offered 

 by many at cheap rates.
