Everblooming Bourbon and 

 China Roses

 section, so we list them together. They are strong, 

 vigorous growers. Roses of these classes will bloom freely 

 the first year from young plants and bloom constantly 

 throughout the season. Splendid for autumn blooming.

just as popular today; blooms in fine clusters; large,

 of the same color as the foliage — dark pea green.

"Sturdy as Oak" Rugosas 



These are the only everblooming roses which can be called 

 absolutely hardy. Their growth is extremely vigorous, resulting 

 in sturdy, compact, bushes four to six feet high. Wrinkled 

 leathery foliage, of a dark shiny green, unaffected by insects or 

 disease. They thrive under all conditions, and are indispensable 

 for hedges, for backgrounds, or wherever plants requiring little 

 attention are desired. 



Price of Rugosas, except where noted, strong one-year plants, 30 cts. 

 each; 4 for $1.00, postpaid; two-year-old plants, 85 cts. each; $8.50 

 per dozen. 



Sir Thomas Lipton. The best pure white Rugosa Rose. Strong 

 and vigorous, grows 4 feet high. Flowers perfectly double, 

 pure snow-white. Fragrant, borne on long stems continuously 

 throughout the season. Hardy. Fine for hedging, cemetery 

 and park work. 



Conrad Ferdinand Meyer. Strong grower; perfectly hardy; 

 flowers very large; well filled. Silver rose. Very fragrant. 



New Century. Rright, rosy pink, with red center, with petals 

 widely bordered with creamy white. 



Magnifica. Red. Very free bloomer, attractive. Price, two- 

 year-old plants, $1.10. 



F. J. Grootendorst. This is a new type of Rose which 

 might properly be called a Rugosa Raby Rambler, it 

 being a cross between Rugosa and the crimson Raby 

 Rambler. Imagine a shrub-like Rugosa Rose covered 

 with trusses of crimson Raby Rambler Roses and you 

 will have a fair conception of this new hybrid variety. 

 It is not a Rose that you want to plant in with your 

 bed of Hybrid-Tea or Hybrid Perpetual Roses, but is 

 valuable to plant as an isolated specimen or in a mass 

 in a bed in an exposed position or among shrubs in a 

 shrubbery border or use it for an everblooming hedge 

 for which purpose it is admirably adapted. It is abso- 

 lutely hardy and continues in bloom until late in the 

 fall. Strong two-year-old plants, $1.00 each.
