EVER-BLOOMING TEA ROSES, 



GREENHOUSE VIEW. 



FOR general planting, more especially in open ground, this class excels all others. 

 One-year-old plants, such as we send by Mail, bloom the first and each succeeding 

 year, from early spring until severe frosts. Two-year-old plants, of course, yield 

 a greater profusion of flowers, owing to their size. The flowers are noted for their 

 exquisite coloring and delightful fragrance. Hardy everywhere in open ground with pro- 

 tection of litter, leaves, evergreen boughs or similar material. Plant liberally of one-year- 

 old Roses, the harvest of bloom they give the first year compensates for the trifling outlay. 

 Any one can succeed with them. 



WE OUTSTRIP ALL COMPETITION 

 BOTH IN QUALITY AND PRICE. j» 



Not only do we offer the largest and most complete collection of Roses in America, 

 but we do more — we offer the highest quality at the lowest prices, which is more impor- 

 tant to the buyer. We claim for our stock that it is better grown than any other, and 

 therefore success is almost certain with D. & C. Roses. We do not believe it possible to 

 grow good Roses in a pot less than two and a half inches in diameter. Many of our one- 

 year-old Roses are grown in three-inch pots. It costs more to grow such plants, but a life- 

 time' s experience has taught us that what is good for customers is good for us. Such stock 

 as we offer is far superior to Roses grown in one-and-a-half and two-inch pots. Our prices 

 are low — our stock the best. For the season of 1902 we have the finest as well as the 

 largest stock of Roses we have ever had. You have a stock of over 07ie 77iillion plaiits to 

 choose from.

ALINE SISLEY. 



One of the Best. 

 This is a splendid, free-flowering, strong-growing, dark- 

 colored Tea, and beyond a doubt one of the most satisfactory- 

 varieties for open-ground culture, where it grows to per- 

 fection. The flowers are very large, full and double. The 

 color is a rich, rare shade of violet red. brightened with crim- 

 son maroon. The fragrance is exceedingly sweet, and more 

 pronounced than is found in most Teas. It blooms with 

 wonderful freedom. A grand red variety, and one we think 

 a great deal of. 



ANDRE SCHWARTZ. 



" Ever-Blooming Jack." 

 Sines its introduction this Rose has been known as the 

 "true Tea Jacqueminot" because of its striking resemblance 

 to that famous variety. The flowers are beautifully made, 

 being large, full and of excellent substance. The color is 

 brilliant, glowing scarlet, passing to rich crimson, very bright 

 and strikingly beautiful. It is a strong, sturdy grower and 

 a constant and profuse bloomer. It cannot be surpassed in 

 open ground. 



ANNA OLLIVER. 



A Superb Free-Blooming Rose. 



A strong, vigorous grower, succeeding in almost any situa- 

 tion; indeed, we believe this to be one of the best varieties — 

 old or new — for general cultivation. The flowers are extra 

 large, with a full double form and splendid substance; color 

 lovely creamy blush (buff) shaded with deep carmine, beauti- 

 fully tinged and edged with silvery rose; very fragrant. 

 Good in every way. 



ARCHDUCHESSE MARIE IMMACUL/E. 



New and Beautiful. 



This is one of the most beautiful Roses in the list. The 

 flowers are large, full and sweet, and the buds are exceedingly 

 beautiful, being of splendid size and beautifully pointed. 

 It is a strong grower and a profuse and continuous bloomer. 

 In the open ground it excels. The color is pale citron red 

 with red vermilion centre — an odd and rarely beautiful com- 

 bination, worthy of a place in every garden.
